India’s leading stock exchanges, including the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), currently have no declared holidays for July 2025, as per the official trading calendar. This means regular market operations are expected throughout the month unless any changes are notified later by regulatory authorities.
There is speculation that July 7 might be a market holiday in observance of Muharram, but no official communication has been issued by SEBI (Securities and Exchange Board of India) or the exchanges so far. Similarly, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has not confirmed whether national banks will remain shut on the date.
The observance of Muharram is based on the Islamic lunar calendar, and the exact holiday date depends on the sighting of the crescent moon. If the moon is sighted on July 5, Muharram would be observed on July 6. Otherwise, the holiday may shift to July 7. Typically, such confirmations are made just one or two days in advance, which makes it important for traders to stay alert to official sources.
If SEBI confirms July 7 as a holiday, trading on both BSE and NSE will remain fully suspended. This includes:
Such a closure would mean no transactions or settlements can take place on that day, impacting both retail and institutional investors.
