Will banks be open on Wednesday, 22 October 2025?
The states where closures are explicitly listed for 22 October include: Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Uttarakhand, Sikkim, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar.
On 22 October 2025, banks will be closed in several states for the festival days of Bali Pratipada / Govardhan Puja / Vikram Samvat New Year / Laxmi Puja (Deepawali) and related observances. The states where closures are explicitly listed for 22 October include: Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Uttarakhand, Sikkim, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar.
In other states and union territories where no festival‑bank‑holiday is declared for that date, banks are likely to remain operational as usual (though always subject to any local/branch‑specific notice). For example, If you’re in Mumbai or Maharashtra, expect bank branches to be closed on 22 October.
If you’re in another state (say one not listed among the closures), your local branch may be open - but it is advisable to check with your branch or bank’s website for confirmation.

Even when branches are closed, digital banking services (internet banking, mobile app, ATMs, UPI) continue to work normally.
If you are unsure whether your local bank will operate, call the branch or consult the bank’s official holiday list (often published by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) or the bank website).
