Stock Market Holiday For Holi 2025: Stock market investors should note the upcoming holiday this week. Both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) will remain closed on Friday, March 14, 2025, in observance of Holi, meaning no trading activities will take place on that day.

Holi, known as the ‘festival of colours,’ is a Hindu celebration that signifies the arrival of spring, the end of winter, and the beginning of a new season. The festival is marked by people throwing coloured powders, dancing, singing, and enjoying festivities together. Holi is a joyful occasion that symbolises new beginnings, the victory of good over evil, and the celebration of life.
