New Delhi: Planning a bank visit this month? Keep in mind that, as per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines, all banks in India will be closed on Saturday, August 23, since it falls on the fourth Saturday of the month. Banks stay shut on all Sundays and the second and fourth Saturdays, while they remain open on the first, third, and fifth Saturdays. Make sure to plan your banking tasks accordingly to avoid any inconvenience.
Keep in mind that bank holidays can vary from state to state due to local festivals and regional observances. That’s why it’s a good idea to check with your local bank branch in advance for their holiday schedule. This helps you stay prepared especially during long weekends or in case of urgent banking needs. ()
