Bank holidays next week: All seven daydays next week are a bank holiday in some part of India due to religious celebrations, local festivities and national holidays.
Banks across India, including the State Bank of India (SBI), remain closed during holidays mandated by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). These holidays also comprise the second and fourth Saturdays of each month, and all Sundays in the month.
Banks closed, but you have an emergency? Here’s what to do….
- You can continue to use online or mobile banking services even on national holidays — unless notified to users for technical or other reasons.
- For cash emergencies, ATMs are open for withdrawals, app and UPI function as usual.
The RBI and state governments create a list of holidays for banks, taking into account national and local occasions, operational requirements, religious celebrations and other cultural observances. The central bank makes the announcement through its official website and notifications to banks and other financial institutions.
