Request Body

Parameter	Description	Mandatory/Optional	Default Value
apikey	Your Tradeboard API key	Mandatory	-
year	Year to get holidays for, integer between 2020 and 2050	Optional	Current year

MarketHolidaysSchema declares only these two fields. Any other field, including an exchange filter, returns HTTP 400: this endpoint always returns every exchange's status for each holiday. Filter closed_exchanges and open_exchanges on the client.

Response Fields

Field	Type	Description
status	string	"success" or "error"
year	number	Year for which holidays are returned
timezone	string	Timezone (Asia/Kolkata)
data	array	Array of holiday objects

Holiday Object Fields

Field	Type	Description
date	string	Holiday date (YYYY-MM-DD)
description	string	Holiday name/reason
holiday_type	string	Type of holiday
closed_exchanges	array	Exchanges fully closed
open_exchanges	array	Exchanges with special sessions

Open Exchanges Object Fields

Field	Type	Description
exchange	string	Exchange code
start_time	number	Session start (epoch milliseconds)
end_time	number	Session end (epoch milliseconds)

Holiday Types

Type	Description
TRADING_HOLIDAY	Full market closure
SETTLEMENT_HOLIDAY	Settlement closed, trading may be open
SPECIAL_SESSION	Modified trading hours (e.g., Muhurat)

Notes

• Year must be between 2020 and 2050
• closed_exchanges lists exchanges that are completely closed
• open_exchanges lists exchanges with special/partial sessions
• Times are in epoch milliseconds
• MCX often has evening sessions on NSE/BSE holidays
• The calendar tracks nine exchanges: NSE, BSE, NFO, BFO, MCX, BCD, CDS, NCO, and CRYPTO. CRYPTO trades continuously, so it does not appear in closed_exchanges for ordinary trading holidays.

Use Cases

• Calendar planning: Know trading days in advance
• Strategy scheduling: Adjust strategies for holidays
• Risk management: Plan for reduced liquidity days
