  • NSE and BSE to Open for Rare Sunday Trading During Budget 2026
    January 31, 2026, 9:32 AM EST. The National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) will hold a rare Sunday trading session on February 1, 2026, coinciding with the Union Budget presentation by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.

Both exchanges will follow standard trading hours, with the pre-open session starting at 9 a.m. Live trading in commodity markets will also occur on this day. Markets approached the session cautiously after gains fueled by the India-EU Free Trade Agreement, although mixed earnings and foreign institutional investor selling limited further upside. Sector gains were seen in defence, energy, and oil and gas, while pharma and FMCG lagged, reflecting uneven investor sentiment ahead of the Budget.
