There is a likelihood of extension of lockdown in major cities like Mumbai or easing of the restrictions in a limited manner.

In view of persisting operational dislocations and elevated levels of health risks warranting continuing restrictions on movement, work from home arrangements and business continuity plans, it has been decided that the amended trading hours i.e., from 10.00 am to 2.00 pm for RBI-regulated markets that were effective till the close of business on Thursday April 30, 2020 vide press release dated April 16, 2020 shall be extended till further notice.

Market trading timings will be reviewed on issuance of directions pertaining to lockdown from the Government.
