The Indian stock market will remain closed on Tuesday, October 20, as the NSE and BSE observe a trading holiday for Dussehra. The last market holiday was earlier this month on October 2 for Gandhi Jayanti, making this the second exchange holiday of the month.
A total of 16 stock market holidays have been scheduled for 2026, out of which twelve have already passed. After the Dussehra holiday, trading will remain suspended on three more occasions over the remaining two months of the year.
