The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has announced five bank holidays in November 2025 under its state-wise holiday calendar for FY 2025-26. These holidays vary across states and are based on regional festivals and observances. In addition to these notified holidays, banks will remain closed on all Sundays, along with the second and fourth Saturdays of the month.
Customers are advised to check the regional holiday schedule before planning branch visits. Digital banking services, including net banking, UPI, and mobile banking, will continue to operate as usual for transactions and fund transfers. ATMs will also remain functional for cash withdrawals.
