Out of these, six days are weekly offs that apply to all states. The remaining holidays will vary depending on state-specific festivals.
Apart from Christmas, many local festivals in different states will also lead to bank closures in December 2025.
If you need to deposit a cheque, issue a draft, open a new account, finish loan-related work, or complete any other important banking task, it is helpful to check the holiday list in advance. This will help you plan your work smoothly and avoid inconvenience.
