Bank holidays in April 2022: Banks to remain closed for 15 days

April marks the start of a new fiscal year with a total of nine holidays (excluding weekends). Banks will remain closed for 15 days in the month of April but different states and cities will witness holidays depending on the occasions or festivals in the particular area.

All banks across all parts of India will not witness holidays for all fifteen days.

There are also some state-wise holidays which consist of all Sundays along with the second and fourth Saturdays as holidays.

A customer should have a look at the bank branch holiday list before visiting the banks.

Online banking facilities will be functioning on holidays also. The only thing that’s going to be affected is the withdrawal and deposits of money at the bank branches.
