    Frequently asked questions

    What are NSE and BSE trading hours?
    The normal equity and F&O session runs 9:15 am to 3:30 pm IST, Monday to Friday. A pre-open session runs from 9:00 to 9:15 am. Markets are closed on weekends and exchange holidays.
    What time does the US market open in India?
    NYSE and Nasdaq trade 9:30 am to 4:00 pm New York time — 7:00 pm to 1:30 am IST during US daylight saving time (March to early November) and 8:00 pm to 2:30 am IST the rest of the year.
    Why does MCX close at different times?
    MCX non-agricultural commodities (gold, silver, crude oil, natural gas, base metals) trade until 11:30 pm IST while the US is on daylight saving time, and until 11:55 pm when it isn’t, to overlap with international markets.
    Does this include market holidays?
    No. The clock uses regular weekly hours only. Check the exchange’s official holiday calendar for national holidays, special sessions such as Muhurat trading on Diwali, and any changes to timings.
    When is the forex market open?
    Currencies trade around the clock from Sunday 5 pm to Friday 5 pm New York time (Monday early morning to Saturday early morning IST). Indian currency derivatives on NSE have their own hours.
