Stock Market Holidays March: In the last days of March, it is important for investors associated with the stock market to take care of the holidays. There will be no trading on two different dates at the end of the month, which may affect planning.

The market will remain closed on the occasion of Shri Ram Navami on 26th March and Shri Mahavir Jayanti on 31st March. There will be no trading on Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE) on both these days. However, apart from this, markets will remain open normally on all other days and investors will be able to trade like normal days.

Trading opportunities will be limited at the end of the month

Stock market activities will be seen to be somewhat limited in the last days of March, because the holidays falling during this period are affecting the trading schedule. However, these holidays are not falling simultaneously but in different weeks. Due to which the entire week will not be affected, but investors will have to settle their deals in less days.

Generally the market opens five days a week, but this time due to holidays this order has changed slightly. Especially on March 31, the market will remain closed due to Shri Mahavir Jayanti, due to which only 5 trading days will be left in total in the last days of the month. In such a situation, investors will have less trading opportunities than usual.

Impact on investors’ strategy amid holidays

At the end of the month, when investors make changes to their portfolio, trading days will be reduced due to holidays. Its effect can be especially visible on those doing short term trading, because market fluctuations can be sharp in a limited time. In such a situation, investors need to avoid haste and take decisions thoughtfully.
