 "Bank Holidays in January 2024: Banks to remain closed for 16 days")
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) characterises bank holidays into three classifications i.e. Negotiable Instruments Act, Banks’ Closing of Accounts and Real-Time Gross Settlement Holiday. If you're contemplating whether January 1, 2024, was a bank holiday, the RBI has determined that banking operations will be shut on the first day of the new year in a couple of states.
Moreover, banks nationwide will likewise be shut on the second and fourth Saturdays, as well as each Sunday yearly. It's essential to take note of that in spite of these bank holidays, account holders can in any case utilise net banking and mobile banking services to end a portion of their banking tasks.
Nationwide access to online banking services will persist in spite of the closure of one or the other private or public sector banks. It becomes important for people to develop an uplifted awareness of booked bank holidays, observing the particular dates, consequently, empowering them to plan their visits to their nearby branches.
