Are banks open today? Due to the Lok Sabha general elections phase 6 voting and the weekend, anyone planning to visit their local bank branch will need to wait until Monday. Banks across India will be closed on Saturday and Sunday, May 24 and May 25. According to the Reserve Bank of India, all private and public sector banks are closed on the second and fourth Saturdays of the month. However, banks are open on the first, third, and fifth Saturdays (if there is one).
Even though banks are closed today, essential banking services like ATMs and internet banking will still be available. The closure of banks this Saturday follows their regular schedule, where they observe holidays on the second and fourth Saturdays, as well as Sundays.
