Monday may appear as a normal weekday, but it is not. With the day clashing with Ambedkar Jayanti 2025, there is a high chance that the banks could be shut down.
The public and private sector banks across Delhi will also be shut on Monday. Though in-person banking services will be unavailable, customers can continue to access ATMs, mobile banking, and Internet banking as usual for essential transactions.
In honour of Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar's 134th birth anniversary, most banks will remain closed in the states, including Mizoram, Madhya Pradesh, Chandigarh, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Delhi, Chhattisgarh, Meghalaya, and Himachal Pradesh.
Banks will remain open in a few regions, including Madhya Pradesh, Nagaland, New Delhi, Chhattisgarh, Meghalaya, and Himachal Pradesh.
