New Delhi, June 05: Banks in several parts of India will be closed on Friday, June 06, and Saturday, June 07, 2025, in observance of Eid-ul-Adha (Bakrid). These closures apply to both public-sector and private banks as per the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) holiday calendar. In addition, Sunday, June 08 will be a routine weekly holiday, making it a potential three-day break for many. Bank customers are advised to plan their visits and transactions accordingly. While physical branches may be closed, digital banking platforms, mobile apps, and ATMs will remain operational for most services, ensuring continued access to essential financial functions.

Since bank holidays in India vary by region due to local religious and cultural observances, not all states will experience closures on the same days. Online banking services such as UPI, NEFT, RTGS, and card operations will remain active during the holidays. Customers can also access services like chequebook and demand draft requests, locker applications, and setting up standing instructions digitally. It’s recommended to complete urgent banking tasks in advance and check the RBI’s official calendar to stay informed. Bank Holidays in June 2025: Banks To Remain Closed for 12 Days Next Month; Check Complete List of Bank Holiday Dates.
