July 2021 came and went like the blink of an eye, and August will be here before we know it. The Reserve Bank of India has published a list of all the days when banks would be closed, as is customary.
According to the apex bank's statement, public and private banking activities would be suspended for a total of 15 days next month, including second Saturdays and Sundays.
Remember to avoid going to the bank on these days if you have any work to do with your bank.
In August 2021, there will be eight bank holidays, not including the weekends. Holidays under the Negotiable Instruments Act, Holidays under the Negotiable Instruments Act, Real-Time Gross Settlement Holidays, and Banks' Closing of Accounts are only a few examples.
However, due to the various holidays in each state, bank holidays would vary from state to state across India. Furthermore, not all bank holidays are observed by all institutions.
