NSE, BSE to remain open on February 1, 2025 – Budget Day

Post by: Elena Malik

On February 1, 2025, the Indian equity markets will remain open for trading. This day is especially important because it is when the Union Budget for the financial year 2025-26 will be presented. The National Stock Exchange (NSE) and the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) have made it clear that regular trading will occur on that day. This announcement is crucial because February 1, 2025, falls on a Saturday, and normally, the stock markets are closed on weekends.

The confusion surrounding the market's opening arose because Budget Day is typically a major event for the stock markets. However, as it falls on a Saturday in 2025, many traders and investors were unsure whether the markets would be open or closed. But now, thanks to the notice from NSE and BSE, everyone knows that regular trading will take place on that Saturday.

This special trading session will cover various market segments, including equity, commodity, commodity derivatives, and equity derivatives. It means that all major markets will be open for business, and trading will happen just like it would on any normal weekday.

The trading hours for February 1, 2025, will follow the regular schedule that the stock exchanges use on weekdays. The pre-open session, where traders can place orders before the market officially starts, will take place from 9:00 am to 9:08 am. After the pre-open, the market will be open for regular trading from 9:15 am to 3:30 pm. During this time, traders can buy and sell stocks, commodities, and other financial instruments.

However, there is one important change for February 1, 2025. The “T0” session, which is usually scheduled for trading on most days, will not happen on Budget Day. The T0 session is related to the settlement of trades, and it has been decided that there will be no T0 trading on that day due to the settlement holiday. This means that certain types of trading that happen in the T0 session will be paused, but regular trading will still take place as usual.

This announcement from the NSE and BSE is important for investors, traders, and other market participants because it helps them prepare for the trading day on February 1. Since many people had expected the markets to be closed because of the weekend, this news clears up any confusion. It also allows traders to plan their activities around Budget Day, as the stock markets will be open and regular trading will continue.
