The cultural and linguistic diversity that India has because of its rich history goes back more than 5000 years. Due to this many regional and national festivals are celebrated in our country. The frequency is such that we have almost 1-2 holidays every month because of this.
Indian exchanges majorly NSE and BSE where majority of security trading is done by retail investors, DII’s and FII’s are also closed during these major festivals and anniversaries of national leaders.If you are a trader or an investor then it becomes all the more important for you to keep a tab of when the next market holiday will be so that you can plan your trades accordingly.
