Mon Apr 14 05:10:00 UTC 2025: ## Indian Stock Market to Close for Two Days Next Week Due to Holidays
**Mumbai, India** – The Indian stock market ended a strong week on Friday, with the Nifty 50 index closing above 22,800 following a significant rally fueled by a recent shift in US tariff policy. However, investors will have a shortened trading week ahead, with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) closed on Monday, April 14th (Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar Jayanti), and Friday, April 18th (Good Friday).
This closure applies to all segments, including currency derivatives, with the commodity derivatives and Electronic Gold Receipts (EGR) segments also impacted. The Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX) will be closed for the morning session on April 14th but will open for the evening session. However, it will remain closed all day on April 18th.
The upcoming week will also see several major companies release their Q4 earnings, adding to market volatility. Experts anticipate continued short-term volatility due to factors such as the ongoing trade war, Q4 results, retail inflation, and foreign capital movement. Despite the positive close on Friday, investors remain cautious about the market’s trajectory in the coming weeks. The full list of stock market holidays for 2025 is available on the BSE and NSE websites.
