Stock Market Holidays Next Week: Trading On BSE, NSE Closed On June 26, June 27 & June 28, 2026; Here's Why

The Indian stock market will be closed for three days straight next week due to the special holiday for Muharram and Ashura, an important day for muslims across the world. During a stock market holiday, trading on BSE and NSE will be impacted, especially in trade settlements, buying and selling in equities, commodities, derivatives, currencies and more. Also, the futures and options market could be impacted. Last week, Sensex and Nifty recorded marginal weekly gains as geopolitical tensions eased between US and Iran.

Sensex, Nifty Performance

Currently, Sensex and Nifty are at 76,802.90 and 24,013.10. For the trading week from June 15th to June 19th, Sensex's weekly gains are 183.13 points or 0.24% and Nifty 50 recorded weekly surge of 67 points or 0.28%.

Talking about the performance, Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments, domestic equities posted a broad-based recovery through the week, reflecting renewed risk appetite across the capitalization spectrum with the small and mid-cap indices outperforming large caps by a meaningful margin. The key trigger was a notable decline in Brent crude, which dipped below the $80 per barrel level on hopes of a potential US-Iran peace agreement.

However, Nair added, the abrupt cancellations of peace talks halted the slide in oil prices and led to profit booking toward the close of the week. Sectoral performance was led by consumer durables and real estate, while IT stocks lagged, pressured by Accenture's weak revenue guidance that reignited concerns around discretionary tech spending, compounded by a tighter global rate environment.

Stock Market Weekly Outlook

On the monetary policy front, Nair said, the US Fed maintained a cautious, data-dependent stance with limited forward guidance, reinforcing a higher-for-longer rate disposition. With the RBI maintains a cautious stance, declining crude prices and progress in trade deals with the UK and US could support a gradual improvement in the outlook, though clearer policy direction may take one or two more reviews.

Additionally, below-normal monsoon trends pose risks to food inflation and rural consumption, but sufficient reservoir buffers could limit the fallout, with outcomes dependent on rainfall spread.

Looking ahead, Nair said, a wait-and-watch stance is likely to prevail even as the underlying bias turns incrementally positive. India appears to be gradually moving past two major headwinds - tariff-related uncertainty and geopolitical tensions - which should support valuation recovery after an extended period of consolidation and trading near long-term average P/E.

But the analyst also believes that a meaningful re-rating will require concrete progress on a durable US-Iran agreement and the US-India trade deal, while the Fed's higher-for-longer disposition and tightening at other major central banks may choke global liquidity conditions.

Domestically, the monsoon trajectory, June-quarter earnings facing lagged inflation pressure, and continued FII selling remain near-term overhangs. Incoming India PMI and credit growth data, alongside US PCE and GDP prints, will be the immediate signposts for market direction.
