The Maharashtra government declared a holiday for the celebration of Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi in Mumbai on Monday, September 8, 2025. This change moved the holiday from Friday, September 5, to Monday. The move avoids overlap with Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations, keeping the immersion processions on September 6 smooth.
The Indian stock market, however, will stay open. Both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) will continue normal trading on Monday. Investors can buy and sell stocks as usual without interruption.
Monday will be a settlement holiday. This means that while trading will happen, the clearing and settlement of trades will be delayed. Depositories like NSDL and CDSL will remain closed. Trades done between September 4 and September 8 will be settled only on September 9. Fund payouts and demat account updates will also reflect on that day.
Other markets, including government securities, foreign exchange, money markets, and rupee interest rate derivatives, will remain closed on September 8. Only stock trading will continue, but the settlement process will pause until the next working day.
The Indian stock market has seen small fluctuations recently. On Friday, September 5, the Sensex ended nearly flat at 80,710 points, while the Nifty 50 closed at 24,741. Concerns over global economic factors and foreign capital outflows affected trading sentiment.
Investors need to plan accordingly. While trading is open, late settlements would affect fund movements. Therefore, it is better to check on the Stock Exchange's official websites. The BSE website at bseindia.com provides details of stock market holidays and trading schedules for 2025, and similarly, the NSE website at nseindia.com gives updated notices on holidays as well.
September 2025 has no other stock market holidays. Trading will run normally after regular weekend breaks. Some time-offs later in the year include October 2 for Gandhi Jayanti, October 21 and 22 for Diwali, November 5 for Guru Nanak Dev Jayanti, and December 25 for Christmas.
To avoid confusion, investors can visit the official BSE website for a full list of trading and settlement holidays. The NSE also publishes updated notices regarding holidays and trading schedules.
In short, trading on Monday, September 8, 2025, will go on as usual despite the Mumbai public holiday for Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi. Investors can trade, but should remember that settlements and fund transfers will reflect only on the next day, September 9.
With this facility, stock market activities shall continue smoothly while observing local public holidays in Mumbai.
