Long weekends in Chhattisgarh
Three or more closed days in a row, counting Sundays and second and fourth Saturdays.
Where these dates come from
- Reserve Bank of India. The holiday list for the Raipur office. Reserve Bank holiday page ↗
- Bank lists. Each date is compared with HDFC Bank's list and SBI's calendar.
- The result. The table shows it for every date.
The rules every bank follows
- Sundays. Every Sunday is a bank holiday.
- Second and fourth Saturdays. Banks close on the second and fourth Saturday of each month.
- Other Saturdays. The first, third and fifth Saturdays are full working days.
- Where the Saturday rule comes from. A Government of India order of 20 August 2015, in force from 1 September 2015. Reserve Bank press release ↗
- Saturday closures left in 2026: 26 Sep, 10 Oct, 24 Oct, 14 Nov, 28 Nov, 12 Dec, 26 Dec.
- Five-day week. Banks and unions agreed in 2024 to close every Saturday. The Government has not approved it yet.
- So the old rule stands. Second and fourth Saturdays only. We check this every day.
- State holidays. Each state government declares its own list under Section 25 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881.
- The Reserve Bank collects the lists. It publishes them office by office. That is the list on this page.
- 1 April. Banks close their yearly accounts. In most states there are no public dealings that day.
- Money still moves on a holiday. UPI, NEFT, RTGS and IMPS work every day of the year.
- So do ATMs, cards and net banking. Only branch work stops.
- The Reserve Bank's word on it. RTGS runs all day, every day ↗. So does NEFT ↗.
- What stops on a holiday. Branches are shut. Cheques are not cleared. No cash at the counter.
