All banks in India will be closed on 22 and 23 August because of the 4th week of the month. According to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) rule, all banks in India will be closed on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month. There are total of 3 days bank holidays in this week. Let's know in details.
22 & 23 August:
All bank branches in the country are closed on these days. Sunday is the official weekend holiday, but Saturday is also a bank holiday because it is the 4th of August 2026. Avoid going to any branch if you are planning.
What is on Aug 19th:
All banks in Agartala, the capital of Tripura, will be closed at this date. There is the Jayanti of Maharaja Bir Bikram Kishore Manikya Bahadur on this date. This is a regional bank holiday, so all other state branches are officially open to work on 19th August 2026, for example Delhi, Mumbai, or Chennai.
Are other days ok to work:
Yes, don't plan for Saturday and Sunday of this week. For banking work, don't move on the 19th, if you are from Agartala.
A simple tip:
schedule cheque deposits, drafts, locker access, or any counter service for the working days early in the week, and rely on digital banking for the weekend. That way the holidays won't hold up anything important.
