India Bank Holidays 2026 by State and UT
Check bank holidays in India by state or union territory before visiting a branch or scheduling a payment. The list separates regional dates because bank closures are not identical across India.

Country context
The calendar follows reviewed regional records and the Reserve Bank of India holiday framework. RBI listings distinguish holidays under the Negotiable Instruments Act, RTGS-related holidays and the annual closing of bank accounts.
Coverage and entitlement
Choose the state or union territory that serves your branch. The named-date table does not duplicate every recurring Sunday or second and fourth Saturday, and current reviewed coverage should not be read as a single nationwide closure list.
Calendar interpretation
Use the date table first, then the official source for last-minute notices or jurisdiction details.
Workplace impact
Employer leave, office closure and bank closure are separate questions. Confirm workplace arrangements with the applicable employer.
Banking impact
Branch counters, cheque clearing and settlement availability can differ by location and service. Online banking may remain available even when a branch is closed.
Schools and institutions
Bank holidays do not automatically close schools. Use the school or education-authority calendar for term dates and closures.
Travel planning
Allow extra time for branch visits, cash needs and time-sensitive payments around long weekends.
Frequently asked questions
Are bank holidays the same in every Indian state?
No. Many dates are declared for particular states or RBI regional offices, while a smaller number are widely observed.
Are banks closed on the second and fourth Saturday?
Scheduled and non-scheduled banks generally observe the second and fourth Saturday as a holiday; those recurring weekends are not repeated as named events in this table.
Where should I confirm an India bank holiday?
Check the RBI holiday matrix and your bank branch notice for the relevant location.
