How GIFT Nifty holidays differ from NSE holidays
GIFT Nifty settles in US dollars, so NSE IX observes some US banking holidays (such as Thanksgiving and Independence Day) as well as Indian ones. On an Indian holiday when NSE IX is open, GIFT Nifty can trade while the Nifty 50 spot market is shut. On a US-related holiday, the reverse can happen.
