As per the RBI Holiday Calendar 2025, most banks in India will remain closed today, Tuesday, April 1, 2025, except in Mizoram, Chhattisgarh, Himachal Pradesh, and Meghalaya. Throughout April, banks will be closed for up to 15 days due to public holidays, including the second and fourth Saturdays and Sundays.
If you are wondering, “Are banks open today?”, the answer is that banks across India are closed on April 1 due to the year-end bank closing. Financial institutions use this day to finalise their accounts for the financial year 2024-25 (FY25). They reconcile yearly transactions, update records, and prepare financial statements for the new fiscal year.
Additionally, banks in Jharkhand are closed today for Sarhul, a spring festival that marks the beginning of the new year. This year, Sarhul coincides with the year-end closing, making it a 1 April 2025 bank holiday in the state.
Despite bank branches being closed, ATM and online banking services will function as usual. Customers can still perform online transactions, bill payments, and other digital banking services without any disruption. If you need to visit a bank branch, it is advisable to plan ahead to avoid inconvenience.
Since April 1, 2025, is a bank holiday, customers should plan their in-branch transactions accordingly. However, digital banking services and ATMs will continue to operate without disruptions.
