Why is the Indian Stock Market Open Today on a Union Budget Day?


Last Updated: 1st February 2025 - 12:40 pm
The Indian stock market is open today, February 1, 2025, despite it being a Saturday, to facilitate trading during the presentation of the Union Budget 2025-26. The BSE and NSE have made a special provision for market hours on Budget Day, ensuring that investors can react in real-time to the government's economic policies and announcements.
Typically, the stock market remains closed on weekends, but Budget Day trading is an exception whenever the Union Budget 2025 is presented on a non-business day. This allows market participants, including investors and traders, to immediately respond to key policy measures impacting sectors such as taxation, infrastructure, banking, and agriculture.
With Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman unveiling new budgetary allocations and economic reforms, market movements today are expected to reflect investor sentiment toward the government's fiscal strategy for the upcoming financial year.
