Stock market holiday: Are NSE, BSE open or closed tomorrow?
Stock market holiday: Amid the volatile trade session on Dalal Street, some Indian stock market observers and investors might feel confused about whether trade activity will occur tomorrow. The primary reason for this confusion is the Maharashtra Day celebrations across the state on 1 May 2025. As Maharashtra Day is a state holiday commemorating the formation of the State of Maharashtra in India, the BSE and National Stock Exchange (NSE), which are based in the capital of Maharashtra, are expected to celebrate the state holiday. Therefore, some stock investors and Dalal Street observers are confused about whether there will be a stock market holiday on Thursday or whether trade activity will continue as usual on 1 May 2025.
To avoid confusion, investors and stock market observers are advised to look at the stock market holidays 2025 list on the official BSE website — bseindia.com. On top of the website, one can click on the Trading Holidays toolbar. Find out the list of stock market holidays in 2025. This list mentions that the Indian stock market will remain closed on 1 May 2025 for Maharashtra Day 2025. This means NSE and BSE will remain closed on Thursday.
This means there will be no trading activity on Thursday. According to the stock market holidays 2025 list, available on the BSE website—bseindia.com—trading in the Equity Segment, Equity Derivative Segment, and SLB Segment will remain closed on 1 May 2025.
