October 4 No bank holiday due to First Saturday!

If you are going to the bank on October 4, 2025, you wonder if the banks are open or closed. The status of the banks is based on the state where you live.

Banks Open in Most States

According to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) holiday calendar, banks will be open on October 4, 2025, in most states. This is because October 4 falls on the first Saturday of the month, and banks typically operate on the first, third, and fifth Saturdays.

Sikkim Banks Closed

But Sikkim banks will remain shut on 4th October, 2025, as it is the day of Durga Puja (Dasain) celebrations. If you are in Sikkim and need to make banking transactions, you can pre-plan or access digital banking services.
