On Saturday, August 2, 2025, banks will be open as it is the first Saturday of the month. While August 2025 does not have any nationally observed holidays, the month includes several regional festivals that may result in bank closures depending on location.
August Bank Holidays
It is important to note that bank holidays can vary by region. In August 2025, banks will be closed for up to 15 days in certain parts of India, due to a combination of weekends, national holidays, and regional festivals. These holidays are determined by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), but the specific days of closure can differ from state to state.
Here is a list of some of the holidays in August 2025:
In addition to these holidays, banks will also be closed on Sundays (August 3, 10, 17, 24, and 31) and the second and fourth Saturdays of the month (August 9 and 23).
Customer Convenience
Even when banks are closed, many offer online and mobile banking services, allowing customers to perform transactions, check balances, and manage their accounts remotely. ATMs also provide access to cash and other services. However, it is worth remembering that the processing of some transactions may be delayed until the next working day.
To avoid any inconvenience, it is always a good idea to check with your local branch for specific holiday schedules and to plan your banking activities accordingly.
