In a rare and shortened trading week, the Indian equity markets opened for just three days between April 15 and April 17, 2025, due to multiple public holidays. Markets remained closed on April 14 (Monday) for Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Jayanti, and were also shut last week on April 10 (Thursday) for Shri Mahavir Jayanti.<\/p>\n

This makes April a rather light month for traders and investors, with three market holidays already lined up. These holidays are notified annually by the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and are a crucial part of the trading calendar.<\/p>\n
