RBI classifies holidays into three categories: Real-Time Gross Settlement Holiday, Banks' Closing of Accounts Holiday, and Holidays Under the Negotiable Instruments Act.

In June, banks were closed for 10 days due to holidays like Bakrid, Maharana Pratap Jayanti, other than usual weekend holidays. It should be noted that customers can continue to access banking services via net banking, ATMs, mobile applications and bank websites even on days that are deemed holidays.
