As October approaches closer, the holiday season is in full gear, with Dussehra and other major events planned for the month. Banks will thus be closed for a number of days in October when these celebrations take place. If you’re planning to get work done, you may encounter hurdles due to bank closures. The whole schedule of bank holidays should be well known in advance.
The entire list of October bank holidays, which covers weekends (Saturdays and Sundays) and varies by location, has been made public by the RBI. There will be a total of more than 15 days off work in the forthcoming month.
