We can write our own script to find the market Holidays
I am having three methods

Web scalping
Excel file holiday data
Directly paste the holiday from know sites into our script

You can use NSE API

import datetime

import pandas as pd
import requests


def is_holiday(date: datetime.date):
    headers = {'user-agent': 'PostmanRuntime/7.26.5'}
    endpoint = "https://www.nseindia.com/api/holiday-master?type=trading"
    response = requests.get(endpoint, headers=headers)
    assert response.status_code == 200, response.json()
    holidays_json = response.json()['FO']
    holidays_df = pd.DataFrame(holidays_json)
    holidays_df['tradingDate'] = pd.to_datetime(holidays_df['tradingDate'])
    return pd.Timestamp(date) in holidays_df['tradingDate'].values
