Yes, the Indian stock market is open on January 1, 2025. According to the official holiday calendar released by the National Stock Exchange (NSE) of India, New Year’s Day will be a regular trading day for both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the NSE. As a result, the Sensex and Nifty 50 indices will continue to operate as usual.
The trading day will begin with the pre-open session at the usual time of 9:00 AM, followed by the regular market opening at 9:15 AM. The trading session will close at the fixed time of 3:30 PM, as is customary.
On the first trading day of the New Year, at 08:10 AM, GIFT Nifty futures were trading at 23,734.50, which is about 12 points higher than the last closing of Nifty futures. This marks a positive start for the Indian stock market in 2025.
Despite the Indian markets being open, the trading may witness muted volume on January 1, 2025. Many global markets, including those in Australia, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, the UK, Europe, and the US, are closed in observance of New Year’s Day. This could lead to reduced international market influence on Indian stocks.
No, the US stock markets will not open today. The markets are closed for New Year’s Day on January 1, 2025. The Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) has confirmed that US trading will resume on January 2, 2025, after an early market close on December 31, 2024.
