Holiday on April 23
- Banking services will also be suspended on April 23 in select districts of West Bengal and Tamil Nadu due to state assembly elections.
Bank holiday April 25, 26
- Additionally, April 25 and 26 will be nationwide holidays, with the former being the second Saturday and the latter a Sunday.
As per RBI guidelines, all scheduled and non-scheduled banks, including commercial banks, cooperative banks, Regional Rural Banks (RRBs), Small Finance Banks, and Local Area Banks, remain closed on the second and fourth Saturdays of every month.
Meanwhile, the banks will not remain closed for all the days continuously in all states or regions. This refers to the total number of days banks will remain closed in different parts of the country due to state-specific holidays. For example, banks may be shut in Kochi for Thiruvalluvar Day, while they remain open in other states where the occasion is not observed. Since regional festivals vary across states, bank holidays differ accordingly.
