Bank Holidays For The Month Of June
Reportedly, the coming month of June 2024 is packed with almost 12 scheduled bank holidays on account of various religious holidays, regional celebrations and the weekend leaves.
Yes, You heard right! All national and private banks in the country, including the State Bank of India (SBI), have at least 12 days of holidays in June 2024.
It is noteworthy here that these holidays are mainly dependent on their regional festivities.
If you are wondering about the Saturdays, this includes the second and fourth Saturdays in the month along with off on Sundays.
Interestingly, this month has five Sundays.
The bank customers also need to keep a note that non-working days across states differ due to regional celebrations and festivals.
So, before planning ahead, the users should check and confirm all listed holidays with their nearest bank branch.
This will also help in planning in a better way while avoiding last-minute confusion and emergencies.
It appears that the country’s central bank, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the corresponding state governments set the banks’ holiday calendar for the year.
So there are chances that schedules may differ due to the local customs across states.
