Bank holidays in June 2025: With the new month drawing near, we take a look at the official bank holiday schedule issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for June 2025.
Overall, the month has a total of 12 listed holidays, including Bakri Id, besides other regional festivals, and the weekly offs. All banks in India, public and private, have the second and fourth Saturdays as a holiday and all Sundays in the month are weekly offs.
You should note that holidays may differ across states in India due to regional and local requirments. It is thus best to check with your local bank branch for their holiday schedule or list ahead of time to be properly informed and make preparations in case of emergencies or long weekends.
Bakrid long weekend?
In Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram in Kerala, banks will be closed on June 6, which is Friday, for Id-ul-Ad’ha (Bakrid); while pan India, the Bakri ID (Id-Uz-Zuha) holiday is on June 7 (Saturday).
This is followed by Sunday holiday on June 8.

What to do when banks are closed?
You can continue to use online or mobile banking services even on national holidays — unless notified to users for technical or other reasons. For cash emergencies, ATMs are open for withdrawals, app and UPI function as usual.
All of the bank’s annual holiday calendar is declared by the RBI under provisions of the Negotiable Instruments Act, which deals with the issuance of cheques and promissory notes. Transactions involving these instruments are thus not available during these listed holidays.
The RBI and state governments create a list of holidays for banks, taking into account national and local occasions, operational requirements, religious celebrations and other cultural observances. The central bank makes the announcement through its official website and notifications to banks and other financial institutions.
