The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE) will hold their annual Muhurat Trading session on Sunday, November 8, 2026, from 2:20 pm to 3:30 pm to mark Diwali and the start of the new Hindu calendar year. The session includes a 15-minute pre-opening window starting at 2:05 pm, block deals, and closing auctions.

This symbolic session is traditionally believed to bring prosperity and is conducted during daylight hours this year, a departure from the usual evening timing.
