The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has released the list of Bank Holidays for June 2023. In the month of June, in addition to the customary weekends, banks will remain closed in numerous states due to festivities such as Rath Yatra, Kharchi Puja, and Eid ul Azha.
As per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines, banks will be closed on all public holidays with some regional holidays depending on the particular state. Regional holidays are decided by respective state governments.
The holidays come into effect under three categories, including ‘Holiday under Negotiable Instruments Act’, ‘Holiday under Negotiable Instruments Act and Real Time Gross Settlement Holiday’ and ‘Banks’ Closing of Accounts’.
The duration of bank closures in June is a matter of interest for many. From simple cash withdrawals to acquiring drafts and more, a visit to the bank is inevitable for various tasks. Adding to the buzz, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has issued an order to replace the Rs 2,000 notes. The deadline for exchanging these notes is set for the 30th of September, 2023, granting ample time to avail oneself of this opportunity (2000 Rupee Note Exchange). However, it is crucial to note that June, a month packed with holidays (June 2023 Bank Holiday List), might pose certain challenges if one intends to engage in essential bank-related affairs during this period.
