How do these holidays affect you?
On listed holidays, branch services like check clearance, passbook update or cash handling will not be available. Digital banking channels – mobile apps, net banking and ATMs – will continue to function normally. If any important date, such as loan repayment, recurring deposit deduction, or investment maturity, falls on any holiday, the process is usually transferred to the next working days, as per RBI guidelines. To avoid last minute hassles, customers should plan important branch related work a day or two before these holidays. For regular transactions, online banking and ATM facilities provide options available round the clock.
