This trading holiday was not part of the original stock market holiday calendar shared by NSE in December, but was added on Monday.

BSE and NSE announced that Thursday, January 15, will be a trading holiday in the equity and equity derivatives segment on account of the Municipal Corporation Election in Maharashtra. Apart from this, the currency markets will also be shut, while trading in the commodity derivatives segment will take place in the evening session.
