This event has minimal direct market impact as it primarily concerns public transport arrangements for a national holiday in India. The mention of Free Trade Agreement discussions between India and the European Union could have future market implications, but it is not the focus of this event.
The India — Delhi Metro Rail Corporation has announced special operational timings and parking arrangements for January 26, 2026, to facilitate public movement for India's 77th Republic Day celebrations. Metro services will begin at 3:00 AM on all lines, running at 15-minute intervals until 6:00 AM, after which regular service resumes. Parking facilities at all metro stations will remain open, but entry and exit gates at six key stations (Central Secretariat, Udyog Bhawan, Lal Quila, Jama Masjid, Delhi Gate, and ITO) will be closed from 3:00 AM until the conclusion of the Republic Day program for security reasons. Free Metro tickets are also being issued with invitation cards for parade attendees. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will lay a wreath at the National War Memorial, and the parade will commence at 10:30 AM. Ursula von der Leyen and António Costa, Presidents of the European Commission and European Council respectively, will attend as chief guests, with Free Trade Agreement discussions between India and the European Union expected to conclude the following day.
