Why September 2025 Could Be a Game-Changer for the Indian Stock Market
Introduction As we step into the last quarter of 2025, September stands out as a pivotal month for investors and traders. Unlike most months packed with trading holidays, this September comes with a rare advantage—no weekday trading holidays. That means uninterrupted trading sessions on both NSE and BSE, creating an ideal environment for consistent market activity. But it’s not just the open trading days that make September special.

At the same time, global uncertainties—from foreign institutional investor (FII) behavior to geopolitical risks—could test the market’s resilience. Let’s explore why September 2025 may shape the
