Stock Market Holidays July 2025: NSE, BSE To Remain Closed On These Days This Month – Full List
The National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) have released their holiday calendar for 2025. For the month of July, there’s just one official exchange-listed holiday—Muharram. However, it coincides with a weekend.
In July 2025, Indian stock exchanges—NSE (National Stock Exchange) and BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange)—will remain closed for a total of 8 days, all of which fall on weekends. Notably, there are no additional weekday trading holidays this month, even though Muharram (July 6) is listed as a market holiday on the NSE calendar.
Stock Market Holiday in July
Saturdays: July 5, 12, 19, 26
Sundays: July 6, 13, 20, 27
That brings the total number of non-trading days to 8, but all are regular weekends.
Muharram Holiday Falls on a Sunday
The only potential weekday holiday in July 2025, Muharram, is slated for Sunday, July 6. Since stock markets are already closed on Sundays, this does not lead to an additional non-trading day.
