Hi Nithin,
Please refer to the NSE Holiday List for 2013 at http://www.nseindia.com/products/content/derivatives/irf/mrkt_timing_holidays.htm
As per this Apr 1 and Apr 11 are Trading Holidays. Or are they not?
Please confirm.
Thanks,
Maddy
My mistake – the earlier holiday was only for Int Rate Deriv segment. The Equity and FnO segment holidays you have mentioned are correct.
Sorry for the confusion.
Thanks,
Maddy
I have compiled a calendar on Google Calendar. If anyone using Google Calendar can simply add it from the following link:

@Zerodha Header and footer of Zerodha Z-Connect blog pages should move with page scroll. Their fixed position relative to browser window kind of consumes 20-30% space on small screen devices such as netbooks,11″-13″ notebooks,Tablets.
We are moving Zconnect to a new format very soon, Thanks..
Do zerodha allow to deal in ncdex future?
We presently don’t offer trading on NCDEX
excellent zerodha …….
