The banks across India will remain closed for a total 15 days in the month of July. The official holiday list, released by the Reserve Bank of India, includes nine holidays for various festivals in different states, whereas six will be the usual weekend offs.
As per the RBI’s holiday calendar apart from the weekends a few of the festival holidays will be limited to local or regional branches only.
In July the main holiday which will be applicable to all banks across the country includes Eid-al-Adha or Bakrid on July 21.
According to RBI guidelines, all banks including the public sector, private sector, foreign banks, cooperative banks and regional banks across the country should remain closed on the notified holidays.
