Banks across India will observe multiple holidays between August 4 and August 10, 2025, as per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) holiday calendar. However, these will not be continuous holidays for all bank branches nationwide. Bank closures will vary from state to state, depending on regional festivals and specific local observances.
State-Wise Bank Holiday Schedule
- August 8 (Friday): Bank branches will remain closed in Gangtok for Tendong Lho Rum Faat.
- August 9 (Saturday):
- Banks will be closed in Ahmedabad, Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, Dehradun, Jaipur, Kanpur, Lucknow, and Shimla for Raksha Bandhan and Jhulana Purnima.
- Banks across the country will also remain closed due to the Second Saturday holiday.
- August 10 (Sunday): Banks across India will remain closed for the regular Sunday weekend holiday.
It is important to note that these holidays will not apply simultaneously across all states. For example, banks in Agartala will be closed on a different day for the Birthday of Maharaja Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya Bahadur, but this holiday will not be observed in other states.
RBI Holiday Categories

- Holiday under the Negotiable Instruments Act
