Holiday again on October 4
Bank branches across the country will remain closed on October 4 due to it being a Sunday. Thus, banks will remain open on October 3, falling between the national holiday on October 2 and the weekly holiday on October 4. Customers should plan their banking activities keeping these dates in mind.
Services available via ATM, UPI, and internet banking during holidays
Despite bank branches being closed, digital services such as ATMs, UPI, and internet banking will remain available as usual. However, for tasks like cash deposits, cheque-related transactions, and other activities requiring a branch visit, one may have to wait for the banks to reopen.
Check holiday status before visiting the bank.
Bank holidays can vary by state and city. Therefore, before visiting a bank branch on a specific date, it is advisable to check the holiday status for your state and the respective bank. This helps avoid the inconvenience of finding the branch closed.
