Are all banks open on Sunday, September 27?

Are all banks open on Sunday, September 27? The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has confirmed that all bank branches, offices, ATM-linked branches, and currency chests will operate fully on September 27. This decision was taken ahead of a proposed three-day nationwide bank strike scheduled for September 28-30. Public sector banks and Regional Rural Banks (RRBs) are included in this directive, but private banks are not part of the strike and are expected to remain closed on Sunday unless given separate instructions.

The All India Bank Officers Association has advised its members not to work on Sunday, considering it a holiday under the Industrial Disputes Act. While the proposed strike will disrupt banking services, customers are encouraged to use digital channels like ATMs, internet banking, mobile banking, and UPI for their financial needs during the strike period.
