If you also have to go to the bank branch this month to get some work done, then before going to the bank, definitely check the list of bank holidays. This is because there are a lot of bank holidays in August 2025. This month, banks will not work for 15 days due to weekends and festivals. All banks are closed on Sundays every week. Apart from this, banks are also closed on the second and fourth Saturdays of every month. This time, 3, 10, 17, 24, and 31 August are Sundays. Apart from this, banks will also be closed on the second Saturday of 9 August and the fourth Saturday of 23 August.

Many big festivals are coming in August like Rakshabandhan, Independence Day, Janmashtami, and Ganesh Chaturthi. Due to these festivals, banks will remain closed in different states. It is important to know here that banks will not remain closed for fifteen days in every state. Due to the festival, there may be a holiday in one state and not in the other. Therefore, to know on which dates the banks are closed in your city (State-Wise Bank Holiday List), you should carefully look at the RBI bank holiday list.
