Normal trading on the BSE and NSE will resume on Thursday, October 23.<\/p>\n<h4>Muhurat Trading Recap<\/h4>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">Tuesday\u2019s one-hour Muhurat trading session \u2014 a time-honoured ritual symbolising auspicious beginnings for investors \u2014 started on a strong note but ended largely flat as early gains fizzled out.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">The Nifty 50 climbed 0.1% to close at 25,868.6, while the Sensex gained 0.07% to settle at 84,426.34, marking their highest closing levels since September 2024.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">Despite the subdued finish, investor sentiment remained upbeat, with active participation across large financials, auto majors, and energy stocks. The special session, held between 1:45 pm and 2:45 pm, saw light volumes but healthy trading activity, reflecting optimism for the new Samvat year.<\/p>\n<h4>Significance of Diwali Balipratipada<\/h4>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">Diwali Balipratipada \u2014 also known as Govardhan Puja or Padwa \u2014 is celebrated a day after Diwali to honour King Bali, whose devotion and righteousness earned him a blessing from Lord Vishnu.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">According to legend, Vishnu, in his Vamana avatar, granted King Bali permission to visit his kingdom once a year \u2014 a day now observed as Balipratipada. The festival symbolises the triumph of humility and devotion over arrogance and greed, and represents renewal, prosperity, and new beginnings \u2014 making it particularly auspicious for traders and investors.<\/p>\n<h4>Stock Market Holidays in 2025<\/h4>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">According to the stock market holiday calendar for 2025, there are 18 trading holidays, with four falling on weekdays. After the October holidays, both the BSE and NSE will observe one-day closures each in November and December.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"listOncontentArticleUL\">\n<li>Next Holiday: November 5 \u2014 on account of Prakash Gurpurb Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji<\/li>\n<li>Final Holiday of the Year: December 25 (Thursday) \u2014 for Christmas<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Stock Market Outlook for Samvat 2082<\/h4>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">Indian equities ended Samvat 2081 with modest gains, as the Nifty 50 rose 6% amid challenges such as geopolitical tensions, US tariff concerns, weak earnings, and foreign capital outflows.<\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\">\u201cThe key takeaway from Samvat 2081 is India\u2019s significant underperformance,&#8221; said V.K. Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services.<\/p>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\">\u201cWhile several factors, including Trump tariffs, contributed to this, the sharp decline in India\u2019s earnings growth to 5% in FY25 from an average of 24% over the prior three years was the major reason,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p id=\"11\" class=\"story_para_11\">Looking ahead, analysts expect Samvat 2082 to bring renewed momentum as earnings revive, supported by income tax relief, GST reforms, a healthy monsoon, and easing geopolitical tensions. \u201cFiscal and monetary reforms are starting to yield results,&#8221; Vijayakumar noted. \u201cSales of automobiles and white goods have already surged this festive season. If the trend continues, earnings growth could reach 8\u201310% in FY26, accelerating to 15% in FY27.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"12\" class=\"story_para_12\">He further added that if these expectations materialise, markets could stage a strong rally in Samvat 2082, compensating for the underperformance seen in the previous year. \u201cIn the near term, a possible India\u2013US trade deal may boost sentiment, but the long-term trend will depend on earnings growth,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Aparna Deb\" title=\"Aparna Deb\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/aparna-deb-20948.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Aparna Deb<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Aparna Deb is a Subeditor and writes for the business vertical of News18.com.
