In India, bank branches are closed on every other Saturday (second and fourth) and all Sundays. Public holidays are another reason you might find the bank doors shut.
While many holidays are nationwide, some states celebrate unique occasions based on local traditions. To know for sure if your bank will be open on a particular day, it's best to consult resources specific to your state.
Some common national holidays that close banks include Republic Day, Independence Day, Gandhi Jayanti, and Christmas. Religious holidays also affect bank hours, but these dates vary each year. Examples include Diwali, Dussehra, Eid, Ganesh Chaturthi, and Buddha Purnima.
