Banks across India—including public and private sector lenders such as SBI, HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank—remain closed on specific dates as per the RBI holiday calendars for 2026. For the week spanning June 22 to June 28, multiple reports state that banks stay shut for three consecutive days in several states/cities, while ATMs and online services continue to operate. Separate coverage also points to a longer stretch of closures next week in some states, with one report citing four days, and another describing a broader July closure schedule where total holidays can reach 12 days when weekend closures are included.
For July 2026, outlets describe state-wise holidays linked to regional festivals and commemorative days rather than a nationwide shutdown. Reported examples include closures in Mizoram on July 6, Meghalaya on July 9 and July 17, and closures across Odisha, Uttarakhand and Manipur on July 16, among other regional observances. Customers are repeatedly advised to check local, branch-specific schedules before visiting, especially for services requiring in-person processing such as cash deposits and cheque clearance.
