Muhurat Trading 2026 falls on Sunday, 8 November, for Diwali Laxmi Pujan. NSE and BSE open for a special afternoon session. We can mark the occasion while keeping our usual trading discipline: an auspicious date does not guarantee a profitable trade.
What Time is Muhurat Trading 2026?
The main equity session starts at 2:20 pm IST. Here are the key NSE timings:
- Pre-open: 2:05–2:20 pm.
- Continuous trading, non-CAS shares: 2:20–3:30 pm.
- Continuous trading, CAS shares: 2:20–3:15 pm.

- Post-close equity session: 3:50–4:00 pm.
CAS means Closing Auction Session. We should check which schedule applies to our instrument and confirm any exchange updates before trading.
How We Prepare for the Session
We can review price levels in Nubra Charts, examine strikes in Nubra Option Chain, and compare payoff scenarios in Nubra Strategy Builder. These tools support analysis; they do not predict returns.
Our guides to chart patterns, reading an option chain and using a strategy builder explain those checks. A shorter session gives us less time to respond, so we should review liquidity, position size and exit plans beforehand. We also need to confirm available funds and Nubra’s intraday square-off rules.
