Dussehra 2026: Stock market holiday today or not? NSE, BSE to remain open or closed on 20 Oct Tuesday? Exchange calendar

Mint 1 hr ago·20 Oct 2026, 1:00 am

The stock market will remain closed for trading on Tuesday, October 20, 2026, in observance of the Dussehra festival. This closure applies to all major segments, including equity cash, equity derivatives, and currency derivatives, on both the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). Regular trading activities will resume on Wednesday, October 21.

For investors, this means that no new orders can be placed or executed during the market hours today. However, any open positions or orders placed before the holiday will remain active and will be processed once trading resumes. It is a routine pause in market activity, allowing for a break during the festive season.
