Stock market holiday: The Indian stock market experienced a strong pullback during Friday’s session. Dalal Street investors keep their fingers crossed whether the uptrend will continue next week as the Nifty 50 index has closed above 22,800. This rise could become possible after the unexpected shift in Trump’s tariff policy. However, some market investors and followers are jittery about whether the Indian stock market will reopen on Monday. This confusion is because Dr Baba Saheb Ambedkar Jayanti falls on 14 April 2025, i.e. Monday next week. Stock market enthusiasts needing clarification on whether Monday will be a stock market holiday are advised to go to the BSE or NSE website and search for the stock market holidays 2025 list.
