The month of May is ahead, and in the financial market, it is important to first look at the impending bank holidays for the month. Prior checking of bank holidays is a wise strategy to avoid the headaches of visiting the bank on a specific holiday, and it is a good approach to schedule your day appropriately if you need to do crucial banking tasks. Bank holidays are classified by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) into three categories: Holiday under the Negotiable Instruments Act, Holiday under the Negotiable Instruments Act and Real Time Gross Settlement Holiday and Banks' Closing of Accounts. And here we shall discuss bank holidays that come under the Holiday under Negotiable Instruments Act category of RBI as well as all Sundays and the second and fourth Saturdays of the month.
