ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) has announced its special schedule for the holy month of Ramadan (1446 A.H). Starting Monday, from Monday to Friday, the market will open at 9:17 AM and will be closed by 1:30 PM, except on Fridays, with the last trading session closing at 12:30 PM.
These timings will only apply during Ramadan and revert to regular hours after the holy month ends, unless otherwise advised. It is the PSX’s practice to adjust trading times in Ramadan on the advice of changes to the daily behavior of the comtn traders and investors during the fasting-month period.
