BSE Holidays 2024 – List of Trading Holidays for BSE India

The Bombay Stock Exchange stands as a prestigious hub for stock trading in India, boasting a roster of over 6000 listed companies. As the oldest stock exchange on the Asian continent, it holds the rank of the third largest globally.

Playing a pivotal role in overseeing India’s financial markets, the BSE serves as a conduit for directing dormant resources towards the nation’s economic advancement. Offering a diverse range of market data products, corporate data products, end-of-day products, and more, it serves as a vital cog in the financial machinery.

Trading activities within the BSE are active from 9.15 a.m. to 3.30 p.m. on weekdays, with weekends designated as BSE holidays. The pre-market trading window opens from 9.00 to 9.15 a.m. National holidays of cultural and religious importance are also recognized as BSE trading holidays.

The BSE has released a comprehensive holiday schedule for 2024, categorized by trading sectors and distinguishing between trading and clearing holidays. While trading holidays witness no transactions on the Bombay stock exchange, clearing holidays permit securities transactions but delay financial transfers due to banks’ non-operational status.

The daily trading session on the BSE spans 6 hours and 15 minutes, with no designated lunch break and restrictions on pre-market and after-hours trading. Block deals can be executed at any point during the trading day in the equity segment. The block deal window opens twice a day:

  • Morning Session: 8:45 to 9:00 a.m.
  • Afternoon Session: 2:05 to 2:20 p.m.
