The Indian stock market will remain open on August 28, despite Raksha Bandhan celebrations in several parts of the country. Both the NSE and BSE will operate as usual, as August 28 is not listed as a trading holiday in the 2026 exchange holiday calendars.
Trading will continue across the Equity, Equity Derivatives, Currency Derivatives, NDS-RST and Tri Party Repo segments. Commodity markets will also remain operational, with the Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX) and National Commodity & Derivatives Exchange Limited (NCDEX) scheduled to function normally.
