November 17 Stock Market Holiday or not?

As investors plan their trading activities for the week, many are wondering whether the stock market will remain open on November 17. Since November has seen multiple holidays due to festivals and weekends, the question has become common among traders and market participants.

Is November 17 a Stock Market Holiday?

No — November 17 (Monday) is not a stock market holiday in India.
Both major exchanges, BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange) and NSE (National Stock Exchange) will remain open for regular trading hours.

Why Is November 17 Not a Holiday?

• November 17 is a regular Monday
• There are no national festivals,
• No special occasions,
• No public holidays are listed by the RBI or the stock exchanges for this date.

Therefore, it will be a normal working day for equity, derivatives, and currency markets.

Recent Market Holiday Confusion

The confusion around tomorrow’s market status comes because:

November 16 is a Sunday, and markets remain closed every Sunday.

Recently, several states observed holidays for regional events, leading traders to double-check upcoming dates.

However, these state-specific holidays do not affect national stock market operations.

Trading Hours on November 17

The markets will function as usual:

• Equity Market: 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM
• Pre-Open Session: 9:00 AM to 9:15 AM
