In 2025, Diwali Muhurat Trading is scheduled for October 21, 2025. The session is typically brief, lasting about an hour.

The Diwali Muhurat Trading session is largely symbolic, often marked by traditional rituals and ceremonial trades. Investors and brokerage houses may participate to observe the custom, recording transactions as part of the festival’s financial traditions.
Participation in this session varies from year to year and across investor types. Some traders view it as an opportunity to start the new financial year, while others treat it purely as a ceremonial or festive activity.
Investor Approach
Whether to participate in Diwali Muhurat Trading is ultimately an individual choice. The session is not necessarily indicative of market trends or performance for the year ahead.
