In December 2025, banks across Punjab will stay shut on multiple days - like weekends, every second and fourth Saturday, plus some local or nationwide festive dates - so people should keep track to manage money tasks without hassle.
All Sundays - like 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th of December - are public holidays across Punjab due to regular weekend closures.
On 13 December - second Saturday - the holiday is confirmed across Punjab under RBI rules; also on 27th, the fourth Saturday, banks stay closed as it's a declared public break.
These These days apply to all banks - whether public-run, privately owned, co-op types, or rural banks across Punjab.
Besides weekends, banks across Punjab won't open on these official holidays in December 2025:
- 25 December 2025, Thursday – Christmas Day falls on a public holiday across the country, also affecting Punjab.
- 27 Dec 2025, Sat – In Punjab, people celebrate Sri Guru Gobind Singh Jayanti on this day; banks stay shut due to the holiday falling on the fourth Saturday.
Other than these days, Punjab doesn't have extra bank holidays in December - just the usual weekend breaks.
Branches stay shut every Sunday, plus the second and fourth Saturday each month, alongside Christmas Day, also Sri Guru Gobind Singh Jayanti.
Online banking works through the holidays, while mobile banking stays online too - so your digital payments keep running without a hitch. UPI services also stay active, letting you send cash smoothly using apps on your phone instead of visiting branches.
- When needing branch help - like taking out cash, dropping off payments, using a safe deposit box, or checking papers - pick days that don't clash with holiday closures so things go smooth.
- Check holiday dates at your bank's nearby office or main site since unexpected local breaks might pop up now and then.
Punjab’s banking schedule for December 2025 shows 8 holidays - four fall on Sundays, a couple land on Saturdays, one marks Christmas, another celebrates Sri Guru Gobind Singh Jayanti; these mix central bank rules with local traditions so people can plan better.
