Bank Holiday in August 2025: Dates on which banks will observe closure next month.

Bank Holiday In August 2025: Scheduled and non-scheduled banks across India will observe closure on several days in August due to public holidays. The RBI prepares this holiday schedule annually in coordination with state governments and publishes it on its official website. All government and private banks across the country observe closures every Sunday, as well as on the second and fourth Saturdays of each month.

During bank holidays, customers can continue to access services through net banking, mobile banking, UPI, and ATMs. While these digital platforms remain operational for transactions, cheque clearing and other physical banking activities governed by the Negotiable Instruments Act will not be processed on these days.

Additionally, the RBI has announced certain state-specific holidays that apply only to banks in those regions. Customers planning to visit bank branches next month for important transactions are advised to check the holiday schedule in advance to avoid any inconvenience.
