Indian equity markets will remain open on Sunday, February 1, 2026, owing to the presentation of the Union Budget 2026. This special live trading session gives market participants a rare opportunity to react to budget announcements in real time.

Whether you choose to trade actively or simply observe the market’s reaction, preparation is key. Stay informed, stay cautious, and focus on capital protection first.
