Banks are generally open on September 5, including branches of SBI, HDFC Bank and ICICI, because the date falls on the first Saturday of the month. As reported, Saturday opening follows regular branch operations rather than a nationwide closure.
The reports also address Teachers’ Day, noting it is not treated as a nationwide bank holiday. While the overall guidance is that branches operate normally, outlets point out that individual locations and local rules can affect hours, so customers may need to confirm timings with their specific branch.
