Bank Holidays Between December 8–14, 2025: 4 Days Closure, Check State-Wise Details
Banks across several parts of India will observe up to four holidays next week, as per the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) holiday schedule. While national holidays apply uniformly across the country, bank closures linked to regional events vary from state to state.
Between December 8 and December 14, banks in select regions will remain shut due to local elections, commemorative observances, and the regular second-Saturday weekend holiday.
Why Bank Holidays Vary
Bank holidays in India depend on three factors:
National holidays
Regional/state-specific festivals and events
Weekend closures (second and fourth Saturdays, Sundays)
As a result, not all bank branches across the country close on the same dates.
