NEW DELHI: Banks are closed on July 26 2025, fourth Saturday of the month, as per the rules of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).
As per RBI guidelines, banks across the country are closed on Sundays and the second and fourth Saturdays of the month, along with national and regional holidays.
Banks remain open on the first, third, and fifth Saturdays unless those days coincide with a holiday. For August, Banks are set to be closed on August 9 (second Saturday), August 15 (Independence Day), August 16 (Janmashtami), and August 23(fourth Saturday).
Even if banks remain closed, Digital banking services remain open 24/7 for customers who are already registered. This includes mobile banking apps , net banking, ATM access, and UPI payments.
Local festivals and regional holidays in a particular state can affect bank closure dates. It is best to confirm with RBI’s guidelines, state-wise calendars, and the specific bank’s website to make sure whether the branch will be open on a particular day.
From September 2015, the RBI set forth the guideline that all scheduled and non-scheduled banks, including public, private, foreign, cooperative, regional, rural, and local area banks, observe public holidays on the second and fourth Saturdays of each month.
All other Saturdays, referred to as “working Saturdays,” are full working days.
