Upcoming Bank Holidays in India, Sep 22–28: Check Full RBI List & State-Wise Closure Details

As September comes to an end, several bank holidays in India are lined up for the last week of the month. Customers across different states should be aware of these bank holidays dates to avoid inconvenience with cash deposits, cheque clearances, and branch-related work. The list includes both region-specific bank holidays and the routine weekend closures that are part of the RBI bank holiday calendar 2025.

Bank Holidays from September 22 to September 28

The week begins with multiple regional bank holidays on Monday, September 22. In Rajasthan, particularly in Jaipur, banks will remain closed for Navratra Sthapna, which is the start of Navratri festivities. On the same day, Telangana will observe the first day of Bathukamma, a popular floral festival celebrated across the state.

On Tuesday, September 23, there are two more state-level holidays. In Jammu and Srinagar, banks will stay closed to mark the birth anniversary of Maharaja Hari Singh Ji, the last Dogra ruler of Jammu and Kashmir. Meanwhile, in Haryana, banks will remain shut on the occasion of Heroes' Martyrdom Day, observed in memory of local heroes.

Later in the week, there are nationwide bank closures as per the RBI mandate. On Saturday, September 27, all banks across India will remain closed for the Fourth Saturday, which is a compulsory day off for banks every month. This will be followed by a regular Sunday holiday on September 28, when banks across the country will remain closed.

What should customers do on a bank holiday?

Customers planning branch visits for services like depositing cheques, withdrawing large amounts of cash, or applying for loans should reschedule to avoid these closure dates.

However, customers don't need to worry about access to funds, as digital banking services such as UPI payments, mobile banking, internet banking, and ATMs will continue to function normally throughout the holidays. So, essential transactions like fund transfers and bill payments can still be completed without disruption.

For businesses, especially those dependent on cheque clearances, loan processing, or other bank-related approvals, these bank holidays may cause slight delays. It is advisable for companies to plan transactions in advance to avoid last-minute issues.

Additionally, while the RBI holiday list is followed in most banks, certain state governments may declare extra holidays for regional festivals or special events. Customers are advised to confirm with their local bank branches for the latest updates.
