Bombay stock exchange is one of the premier stock exchanges operating in India, listing more than 6000 companies. It is the oldest stock exchange established in the continent of Asia. It is the third biggest stock exchange in the entire world.
BSE plays an important role in regulating and managing the financial markets of India, channeling idle resources into the economic growth of the country. It includes a wide array of market data products, corporate data products, EOD products, and other data products as well.
Trade-in BSE occurs from 9.15 a.m. to 3.30 p.m. on weekdays, while Saturday-Sunday is observed as BSE holidays. Pre-market open trading happens between 9.00 to 9.15 a.m. Apart from the weekends, several national holidays having cultural and religious significance are also considered as BSE trading holidays.
Separate BSE holiday list 2022 has been published by this stock exchange based on trading sectors. Trading and clearing holidays have been segregated as well, wherein trading holidays constitute no transactions in the Bombay stock exchange.
On days of clearing BSE holidays, on the other hand, the purchase and sale of securities take place, but financial transfers of resources from investors to companies are postponed as banks remain non-functional on these days.
