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.

Union Budget days are known for:

  • Sharp intraday volatility

  • Fast-moving index and sectoral trends

While such sessions can create opportunities, they also carry elevated risk. Price swings can be unpredictable, spreads may widen, and emotions often run high.
