Despite Buddha Purnima, the Indian stock market is open today, May 12, 2025, offering potential bottom-fishing opportunities after last week's dip.

Yes, the Indian stock market is open today, Monday, May 12, 2025, despite it being Buddha Purnima. The National Stock Exchange (NSE) and the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) are operating during their regular trading hours of 9:15 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Recent Market Performance

Last week, the Indian stock market experienced a decline due to escalating tensions between India and Pakistan. The announcement of a ceasefire, however, is expected to ease investor concerns and potentially lead to a positive opening this week.

Market Indices

As of today, May 12, 2025, here's a snapshot of the major Indian market indices:

Sensex: 79,454.47 (-1.10%)
Nifty 50: 24,008.00 (-1.10%)

The market capitalization of BSE-listed firms decreased to approximately ₹416.8 lakh crore, representing a loss of around ₹2 lakh crore in a single session.

Trading Opportunities

The recent dip in the market may present bottom-fishing opportunities for investors. However, it is important to conduct thorough research and consider consulting with a financial advisor before making any investment decisions.
