Bank Holidays: The month of May is coming to an end. If you also have any urgent work related to the bank, then this news is very useful for you. Today, banks in most states of the country will remain closed. The festival of Buddha Purnima is being celebrated across the country. Due to this, banks are closed in many states today. Banks will not be closed simultaneously in all states. Banks will be closed only in those states where the Reserve Bank of India i.e. RBI has issued a holiday. In the rest of the states, work will continue in the banks.
Banks closed for four days from today
Banks will remain closed for four consecutive days from today. Due to Buddha Purnima, Nazrul Jayanti/2024 General Elections and Saturday-Sunday weekend holidays, banks will remain closed from 23rd to 26th May this week. Customers will face inconvenience in bank related work during this period.
10 holidays of banks in May
All public sector banks, including the largest lender, State Bank of India, have at least ten holidays this month (May 2024). This includes second and fourth Saturday holidays every week and all non-working Sundays each week.
RBI issues list of holidays
The Reserve Bank of India, in conjunction with the holidays declared by the state government, sets the holiday calendar for all banks throughout the year. Not all religious festivals or regional customs are celebrated in the same way. Therefore, they cannot be marked as non-working days in all states across the country.
These bank services will continue
However, the bank’s online banking services will continue as usual during the holidays and you can use the bank’s website, mobile app or ATM and internet to make necessary transactions.
