The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has published a list of official bank holidays for the month of October, with a total of 21 holidays in the month. Many Indian cities' banks would be closed indefinitely at this time. Banks are closed on Sundays, as well as the second and fourth Saturdays of each month, according to RBI regulation.
The list of holidays provided by the RBI is divided into three categories: state-specific festivities, religious holidays, and festival celebrations. The list of RBI required holidays is divided into three categories: 'Holiday under Negotiable Instruments Act,' 'Holiday under Negotiable Instruments Act and Real Time Gross Settlement Holiday,' and 'Banks' Closing of Accounts,' according to official classifications. It's worth noting that the majority of the October holidays go under the heading of 'Holiday under Negotiable Instruments Act,' with just the first day of the month being under the heading of 'Banks' Closing of Accounts.'

Banks will be closed for 13 days in various cities around the country starting today. However, please be aware that not all banks in the country will be closed for the entire 21-day period, as the RBI's holidays are also influenced by regional festivals. In that instance, some holidays are only observed in some states; in other states, banking operations will continue as usual. Not only that, but certain banks will remain open for five days in a row in the coming month in specific locations.
