The sixth month of 2025 has arrived and its beginning is around the corner. With the start of the June month, let's take a look at the holiday schedule released by the Reserve Bank of India, abbreviated as RBI.
All in all, there are 12 listed holidays which include Bakri Id as well as local and regional festivals, along with weekly days off. All banks in India, whether managed by the government or privately, observe the second Saturday each month as a holiday, along with all Sundays.
Holidays can be different in different states of India because of regional and local rules. So, check ahead with your local bank about their holiday schedule to avoid unexpected surprises during emergency or long weekends.
Are we having a Bakrid long weekend?
All banks in Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram in Kerala will be closed on June 6 for Id-ul-Ad’ha (Bakrid), while Bakri ID (Id-Uz-Zuha) is celebrated across the country on June 7. Following this is Sunday holiday on June 8.

What should you do when it’s Saturday or a holiday and your bank is shut?
Online and mobile banking services will be available on national holidays, unless users receive notifications about temporary problems. If you run out of cash and need some, ATMs are available. UPI and the app operate normally as well.
The RBI releases the bank’s holiday calendar each year according to the Negotiable Instruments Act which governs cheques and promissory notes. During the holidays listed above, these instruments cannot be traded.
Boards of the RBI and state governments work together to designate holidays for banks by considering occasions from around the country, their operations and various religious and cultural events. Banks and other financial institutions get notice of changes from the central bank on its website and through official notifications.
