So banks in total will remain shut for up to 14 days in September 2022, including second and fourth Saturdays, and Sundays.
While all financial institutions are to stay closed on public holidays, several states also observe day-offs for regional celebrations such as Thiruvonam in Kochi which may not be observed in other states.
