Bank Holidays in April 2025 — List

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has listed these following dates as bank holidays in April 2025.

What Can Customers Do When Banks Are Closed?

Besides the central bank listed holidays, banks across India are also closed on each second and fourth Saturday of the month, and all the Sundays in any given month. Thus, keep an eye out for those extended weekend offs, and plan your bank work accordingly.

Thus, when banks are closed you can access your funds via online banking, net banking, mobile banking, bank apps and ATMs. Despite any holiday, you can continue to use the above tools, unless maintenance timings or technical issues are specifically notified by your bank.

However, the Negotiable Instruments Act deals with the issuance of cheques and promissory notes and transactions involving these instruments will not be available during the holidays.

It is thus advisable to check the confirmed holiday schedule from your own local bank branch and make arrangements to deal with any extended closures or emergencies on particular dates.
