In September 2022, there will be 13 days when banks are closed, including the weekends. So, everyone should schedule their bank-related tasks in order to avoid delays. The first and fourth Saturdays of each month are typically still business days for banks in India, whereas the second and third Saturdays are observed as holidays. Every Sunday is regarded as a holiday.
There will be eight holidays in September, according to the Reserve Bank of India's calendar, including Sree Narayana Guru Jayanthi on September 10 in Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi. Since this day is also a second Saturday, banks will be closed nationwide on that day. The final five days of the 13-day bank holiday are the remaining weekends.
