Are banks open or closed today, April 12? Check details here

Banks will remain closed on Saturday, April 12, 2025, as per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) holiday schedule.

Banks usually operate on the first and third Saturdays of each month, while the second and fourth Saturdays are non-working days. Since April 12 falls on the second Saturday, banking services will be unavailable.

The RBI classifies bank holidays into three categories: holidays under the Negotiable Instruments Act, Real-Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) holidays, and account-closing holidays.

April 12 has been marked as a holiday under the Negotiable Instruments Act, which governs transactions involving cheques and promissory notes. Hence, such services will not be available on this day.

Despite bank holidays, customers can continue to access online banking services nationwide, ensuring uninterrupted and convenient financial transactions.

During these holidays, users can initiate fund transfers through NEFT/RTGS forms, request demand drafts, and submit chequebook applications. Card-related services for credit, debit, and ATM cards remain accessible. Additionally, customers can carry out tasks such as updating account details, setting up standing instructions, and applying for lockers through digital platforms.
