Surya Grahan 2026: Date, Timings, Visibility In India, Sutak And How To Watch Online
NDTV Profit 3 hrs ago·12 Aug 2026, 4:32 am
A total solar eclipse is set to occur on August 12, 2026, with the moon completely blocking the sun visible across parts of Europe. This celestial event will not be visible in India, meaning the country will not experience the 'Sutak' period, which is traditionally considered inauspicious for certain activities. Investors should note that while the event itself is a natural phenomenon, it may cause temporary market volatility due to global news coverage and investor sentiment.
For the broader Indian market, this event has no direct economic impact. However, global markets in Europe may see short-term fluctuations as traders react to the rare astronomical sight. Investors should focus on the event's novelty rather than its financial implications. There is no immediate cause for concern, and markets are likely to resume normal trading patterns shortly after the event concludes.
