Market holiday alert: Guru Nanak Jayanti on November 5, 2025
Heads up: Both NSE and BSE will take a break on Wednesday, November 5, 2025, for Guru Nanak Jayanti.
That means no trading in stocks or derivatives for the day—everything's paused until Thursday.
Planning trades? It's a short week
If you're tracking the markets or planning trades, it's a short week—so plan ahead.
The holiday marks the 556th birthday of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, a day celebrated with processions and community meals that highlight unity and kindness.
After this [Guru Nanak Jayanti on November 5], the next market holiday is Christmas on December 25.

What's up with MCX?
The MCX (Multi-Commodity Exchange) will pause only morning trades; evening sessions are still on.
So if you're into commodities, you'll still have some action later in the day.
