Akshaya Tritiya, also known as Akha Teej, is considered one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu calendar. In 2025, this sacred occasion falls on Wednesday, April 30. Many people observe religious rituals and make significant financial decisions on this day, including investments in gold and stocks. As a result, there’s often some confusion about whether the Indian stock exchanges — BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange) and NSE (National Stock Exchange) — remain operational.
According to the official holiday calendars released by both the BSE and NSE, there is no trading holiday on April 30, 2025. Therefore, both exchanges will remain open, and regular trading activities will take place as scheduled. Investors can carry out trades and transactions without disruption on this day.
As per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) holiday list for 2025, banks across India will remain open on Akshaya Tritiya, with the exception of Bengaluru, where banks will observe a local holiday. For the rest of the country, banking operations will continue as normal, further clearing up any uncertainty around the day’s status.

Following the Good Friday closure in March, the next stock market holiday falls on Thursday, May 1, 2025, in observance of Maharashtra Day. This means that the trading week will be a truncated one, with the markets closed for one day during that week.
Looking ahead, there are no scheduled stock market holidays in June and July 2025. After May 1, the next break in trading will be on August 15, 2025 (Independence Day). Additionally, the markets will also be closed on August 27, 2025, for Ganesh Chaturthi.
