Today, banks across India remained closed in observance of the fourth Saturday holiday, as mandated by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). This bi-monthly policy aims to provide better work-life balance for banking sector employees.

Understanding the Bank Holiday Policy

Since August 2015, the RBI has implemented a policy whereby banks are closed every second and fourth Saturday, while working on the first, third, and fifth Saturdays.

  • April 26, 2025, falls on the fourth Saturday.
  • All public and private sector banks remained shut for regular transactions.
  • ATMs and online banking services continued operating normally.

Impact on Customers

Customers planning critical banking activities, like cash deposits, cheque clearing, or in-person services, were advised to reschedule their visits. However, digital platforms ensured uninterrupted basic services like fund transfers and bill payments.

Plan Ahead for Banking Needs

With increasing reliance on online banking, holidays like these serve as a reminder to plan major financial activities in advance to avoid inconvenience.
