September Bank Holidays 2026: Check full list of dates & closures
Bank branches will observe multiple closures in September, with the holiday schedule varying from state to state based on regional festivals and local observances
In September 2026, banks in India will observe several closures, with the holiday schedule differing across states due to various regional festivals and local observances. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) releases the official calendar, and customers are encouraged to plan accordingly for branch visits, cheque deposits, and cash needs.
Digital banking services such as UPI, net banking, mobile apps, and ATMs will remain operational during all holidays. However, it is essential to verify the dates with the holiday list issued by the RBI, as certain states like Rajasthan, Kerala, Sikkim, and Haryana may have additional closures on specific dates. Notably, September 26 falls on a fourth Saturday, which is already a designated bank holiday under RBI rules, leading to nationwide closures.
Transactions requiring timeliness are advised to utilize NEFT, RTGS, IMPS, or UPI services, which operate continuously, including on all gazetted holidays. Comments must be submitted in English, following community guidelines and using full sentences without abusive or personal language.
