No trading on Indian stock markets today: Here's why
Both NSE and BSE are taking a break this Wednesday for Diwali Balipratipada, so no trading until markets reopen on Thursday, October 23.
Commodity markets will stay quiet too, except for an evening session after 5pm.
What happened during Tuesday's Muhurat session
During Tuesday's special one-hour Muhurat session, Sensex and Nifty barely moved—up less than 0.1%—as early gains faded with profit-taking.
Big names in finance, auto, and energy saw most of the action but overall volumes were light.
Since Wednesday is also a settlement holiday, profits from trades done on October 21-22 will show up in your account only after the break.
Things to remember
More market holidays are coming up soon—November 5 and December 25.
Instant fund withdrawals still work during breaks, but regular withdrawal requests made on October 22 will be processed after the holiday.
It's smart to double-check unsettled credits and keep an eye on settlement schedules so you don't get caught off guard.
