As per both the BSE and NSE holiday lists, the Indian stock market will be closed on November 10, 2026, for Diwali Balipratipada. Trading will be closed in the Equity Segment, Equity Derivative Segment, Currency Derivatives Segment & NDS-RST, and Tri-Party Repo segments.

Diwali Balipratipada is the fourth day of the Diwali festival and is celebrated in honor of the notional return of the daitya king Bali (Mahabali) to earth.

Settlement Holiday Today:

Along with trading, the settlements of your buying and selling on November 9th will be impacted due to the settlement holiday on November 10. Both CDSL and NSDL will be closed on Wednesday.

NSDL and CDSL are India's two SEBI-regulated depositories that securely hold your shares in electronic form. They are organizations that hold securities like shares, bonds, and mutual fund units in electronic (demat) form. Instead of physical share certificates, investors now hold digital records. When you invest in stocks or SIPs, your holdings are credited to your demat account, maintained with either NSDL or CDSL, through a registered intermediary, as per Aditya Birla Mutual Fund.

At present, the settlement type is T+1 -- which is trading day + 1 for crediting or debiting your shares from your demat account. Since November 10th is a settlement holiday, your trades on November 9th will be settled on November 11th.

Sensex and Nifty will react to every movement in global market on November 11, 2026. Yesterday, Sensex closed at 81,106.65, higher by 107.25 points or 0.13%. Nifty 50 gained by 58.25 points or 0.23% to close at 25,044.65.

Talking about the market performance, Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments said, Indian equities traded range-bound with a positive bias, as intermittent profit booking following the recent rally capped gains. Weakness in IT and metal stocks also weighed on the benchmarks. Improving FII participation and better-than-expected corporate earnings have strengthened expectations of an upgrade to the FY27 earnings outlook, supporting market sentiment.

He added that while several key macro tailwinds appear to be increasingly priced in, valuation comfort, particularly in large caps, easing geopolitical concerns, moderation in crude oil prices from recent peaks, and prospects of a double-digit earnings recovery provide a constructive medium-term backdrop. Investors are now awaiting India and US inflation data for fresh cues on the interest-rate trajectory, while crude oil prices and global risk sentiment remain key near-term monitorables.

Sensex, Nifty Technical Outlook For November 11, 2026:

"We believe that non-directional activity is likely to continue as long as the market trades within this range. On the upside, a successful breakout above 25100/81400 could push the market up to 25200-25250/81700-81800. Conversely, selling pressure is likely to accelerate below 24800/80500, increasing the likelihood of a decline toward 24700-24625/80200-80000," said Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Neo.

To investors, Ajit Mishra, SVP - research, Religare Broking recommended using any further consolidation to selectively accumulate quality stocks, with a focus on banking, pharma, auto, infrastructure and capital markets themes.
