Bank Holidays In August 2025: According to the list of holidays issued by the Reserve Bank of India, banks are closed in some regions on August 27, 2025, for Ganesh Chaturthi.
Banks are closed in several states on August 27, 2025, for the celebration of Ganesh Chaturthi, a major Hindu festival commemorating the birth of Lord Ganesha. However, they will function as usual in other states as Ganesh Chaturthi is not a gazetted holiday. To help customers in such situations, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) releases a monthly list of bank holidays. This list helps them plan their bank-related visits and avoid any inconvenience.

The banks will remain closed in Ahmedabad, Belapur, Bengaluru, Bhubaneswar, Chennai, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Nagpur, Panaji and Vijayawada for Ganesh Chaturthi. In the rest of the country, banks will remain open today, i.e. on August 27, 2025.
