To avoid any inconvenience, individuals with upcoming bank-related tasks next month should review the holiday calendar and plan their visit accordingly.
The RBI has categorized these holidays under three categories, which include ‘Holidays under the Negotiable Instruments Act’, ‘Real-Time Gross Settlement Holidays,’ and ‘Banks’ Closing of Accounts.’
Some of these holidays are regional, so it is advisable to check if the holiday applies to your region before planning a bank visit. However, online and net banking services will remain functional on these days, and individuals can use them in case of urgent support from the bank.
