Budget 2026 will be presented on Sunday. On this occasion, regular live trading session will also be organized in the stock market. It has been an old tradition that when the budget is presented on 1 February and that day falls on a weekend, the markets still remain open. The National Stock Exchange (NSE) has issued a circular informing that on Sunday, February 1, 2026, the stock market will be open from 9:15 am to 3:30 pm on the budget day. Since this day will be settlement holiday, shares purchased on January 30 will not be eligible for sale on February 1. Similarly, stocks purchased on the budget day will not be allowed to be sold the next day i.e. immediately.
