Market Updates: With the restoration of prepandemic trading timings, trading in stock markets regulated by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) will begin at 9 a.m. on April 18.
The markets are currently open at 10 a.m. Following the coronavirus epidemic, which caused operational disruptions and increased health hazards, the trading hours for different RBI-regulated markets were altered on April 7, 2020. The trading hours were later partially restored with effect from November 9, 2020, as operational restrictions eased. The trading hours of these markets will change on April 18 to 9 a.m. to 3.30 p.m., according to a statement released by the central bank on Monday.
"With the significant lessening of limitations on people's movement and office working, it has now been agreed to restore the opening time for regulated financial markets to its pre-pandemic timing of 9 a.m.," according to the release.
