RBI Publishes Bank Holiday Calendar

Every year, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) releases a comprehensive list of bank holidays, outlining the days when banking institutions will remain closed. This schedule is determined by the banking authority, considering national and regional festivals, weekends, and other notable events. 

As per standard practice, banks across the country do not operate on Sundays and observe holidays on the second and fourth Saturdays of each month. While physical bank branches remain shut on these designated holidays, customers can continue to access essential banking services through ATMs, mobile banking, and digital platforms without any disruption. 

The RBI's annual holiday calendar serves as a guideline for all banks nationwide, ensuring uniformity in holiday observance across different states and regions.
