  "summary": "The Indian stock market will continue its operations on August 28, 2026, despite Raksha Bandhan celebrations in several parts of the country. Both the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) will not be closed, as August 28 is not listed as a trading holiday in the 2026 exchange holiday calendars. Trading will be carried out across various segments, including Equity, Equity Derivatives, Currency Derivatives, NDS-RST, and Tri Party Repo. The commodity markets, managed by the Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX) and National Commodity & Derivatives Exchange Limited (NCDEX), will also remain operational. The Indian equity market operates from 9:15 am to 3:30 pm, with the pre-open session starting at 9:00 am.",
