Several holidays are regional, and they may differ from one state to the next and from one bank to the next. As previously stated, there are 14 bank holidays in July, seven of which are weekend holidays. Know dates here.
FollowFollowing a month of fewer bank holidays in June, commercial and public lenders in numerous areas of India are anticipated to witness a significant number of bank holidays in July 2022. This year, there are up to 14 bank holidays in July. The month of July will begin in a few days, which means that there will be a new set of bank holidays in July that will take effect according to the Reserve Bank of India's schedule. The RBI creates a calendar for each month that includes bank holidays.
Several holidays are regional, and they may differ from one state to the next and from one bank to the next. As previously stated, there are 14 bank holidays in July, seven of which are weekend holidays. On the other hand, there are eight regional holidays during which lenders in certain locations remain closed owing to events in those places. If we combine the two groups together, we get 15 bank holidays.
