Muhurat trading is a tradition in the Indian stock market where, on the day of Diwali (or the day of Lakshmi Pūjā), the markets open for a short symbolic trading session. The word “muhurat” means “auspicious moment” in Sanskrit/Hindi. Investors and traders often execute small trades during this window believing that beginning their investments at this auspicious time will bring good fortune for the coming year.
