Akshaya Tritiya 2025, also known as Akha Teej, will be celebrated with traditional fervor across India on Wednesday, April 30. Widely considered one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu calendar, Akshaya Tritiya is often associated with gold buying, property investment, and starting new ventures. But for investors and traders in the Indian stock market, a big question arises: Will the stock market remain open on Akshaya Tritiya 2025?
According to the official list of stock market holidays 2025 published by BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange), there is no trading holiday scheduled for April 30, 2025. This means that both the BSE and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) will operate as usual on Akshaya Tritiya. Market participants can continue regular trading activities, and the stock market will observe normal working hours.

To avoid confusion, investors are advised to visit the official BSE website — bseindia.com. On the homepage, clicking on the “Trading Holidays” tab provides a comprehensive list of market holidays for the year 2025.
