Mumbai: As the year comes to an end, traders and investors are planning their strategies for December. The NSE and BSE have released their holiday schedule for the month, and there is only one festive holiday—Christmas on December 25. Apart from this, the market will remain closed on weekends, bringing the total number of non-trading days in December to nine.
This means investors will have 22 trading sessions before the year concludes.
