NSE, BSE To Hold Muhurat Trading Session Today; Check Time And Other Details

Muhurat Trading 2024: People looking to participate in Muhurat Trading should be aware that all intraday positions will be automatically squared off 15 minutes before the session's close

Muhurat Trading 2024: As Diwali 2024 celebrations unfold, the Indian stock market is preparing for its annual Muhurat Trading session—a special one-hour event that coincides with the Festival of Lights. According to the latest information from Indian stock exchanges, this year’s Muhurat Trading will occur Today (November 1, 2024) from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm. Additionally, while trading will happen during this hour, modifications to trades will be permitted until 7:10 pm. This makes the Muhurat Trading session a significant opportunity for investors to engage in the market during this auspicious time.

People looking to participate in Muhurat Trading should be aware that all intraday positions will be automatically squared off 15 minutes before the session's close, making it essential to plan carefully for same-day trades.

Why Is The Muhurat Trading Session Important?

In India, stockbrokers regard Diwali as the start of their financial year, and many investors believe that purchasing stocks during this auspicious period invites prosperity for the year ahead. This time also provides traders with an opportunity to diversify their portfolios and open new settlement accounts.

While largely symbolic, Muhurat Trading attracts significant participation, with experienced investors taking the chance to recalibrate their portfolios. However, market fluctuations can be quite volatile due to its brief duration.

As the time approaches, both seasoned investors and newcomers are eagerly looking forward to this festive market event.

Stock Market Performance On Muhurat Trading

The BSE Sensex has historically closed higher in 13 of the last 17 Muhurat Trading sessions. The most notable increase occurred in 2008 when the Sensex surged by 5.86 per cent to reach 9,008. Despite the generally positive performance of equity indices during these sessions, trading volumes tend to be low, and only a handful of stocks experience significant movement in such a short timeframe.
