Settlement Holidays
Earlier, the exchanges had announced September 5 as a settlement holiday. However, following the Government of Maharashtra’s notice of shift in public holiday for Eid-e-Milad to September 8, the exchanges updated that both September 5 and September 8 will be settlement holidays.
BSE in a circular stated that the Government of Maharashtra has declared September 08, 2025, as a public holiday under Section 25 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881 and the public holiday on September 05, 2025, declared earlier, has been cancelled.
As a result, there will be a change in the settlement of transactions in the equity and other segments, the BSE said.
