The situation is such that for the first time after the Corona period, Sensex is down with more than 6100 points, while Nifty has also plunged by more than 5 percent. The fear of lower circuit in the market has also become stronger. So, market regulator SEBI has decided to stop trading for some time. However, this will happen only when lower circuit occurs in the market.
When will the market close?
Market regulator SEBI has issued proper timing. After stopping trading twice in between, the market will finally be closed about an hour earlier today. This might happen if lower circuit occurs even for the third time. This is being done for the safety of investors. According to SEBI, there will be no trading in the market after 2.30 pm on June 4. SEBI’s intention is to protect investors from losing money, because today lakhs of crores of rupees were lost due to the continuous fall in the market.
