India's stock markets, the Sensex and Nifty, are set to open with strong gains on Samvat 2083's first day on November 8 as investors participate in the traditional Muhurat trading session. The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE) have scheduled the special trading window between 2:20 pm and 3:30 pm. Muhurat trading, which marks the commencement of the Hindu fiscal year, is viewed as a propitious time to invest.
Historical data shows a noteworthy eight-year streak of positive outcomes for both benchmark indices during Muhurat trading since 2018. The Nifty experienced a slight decline in 2016 and 2017, but rebounded with gains in subsequent years, culminating in a strong 1% rise in 2022. The Sensex mirrored this pattern, with minor fluctuations in early years but a winning streak beginning in 2018.
However, in 2025, both indices failed to maintain early gains despite reaching their 52-week highs during trading, settling at 84,426 for the Sensex and 25,868 for the Nifty. While historical patterns are encouraging, past performance does not guarantee future gains during this auspicious trading session.
