Dear All,

Muhurat Trading is the auspicious stock market trading for an hour on Diwali (Deepawali). It is a symbolic and old ritual, that has been retained and observed for ages, by the trading community.

As Diwali also marks the beginning of the New Year, it is believed that Muhurat Trading on this day brings wealth and prosperity throughout the year.

The time of Muhurat Trading is specified by the stock exchange.
