Bank Holiday Today: Check Whether SBI, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank And PNB Branches Are Open On 12 November

Banks across India, including State Bank of India (SBI), HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank and Punjab National Bank (PNB), are open on Thursday, 12 November. The date is not listed as a bank holiday in the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) holiday calendar.

The RBI holiday schedule covers national and gazetted holidays, regional festivals and other state-specific occasions. Banks also remain closed on Sundays and the second and fourth Saturdays of every month. Since some holidays apply only to particular cities or states, customers should check the schedule for their branch before making a visit.

Even when branches are shut, customers can continue using internet banking, mobile banking apps, ATMs and other digital services.

There are a few scheduled closures later this week and at the start of next week. The holidays listed in the RBI calendar are:

• 13 November (Friday): Banks will remain closed in Shillong for the Wangala Festival.

• 14 November (Saturday): Banks across India will be closed for the second Saturday of the month.

• 15 November (Sunday): Banks will remain closed across the country for the weekly holiday.

• 16 November (Monday): Banks will be closed in Patna and Ranchi for Chhath Puja.

The 13 November and 16 November holidays are location-specific. Branches in other cities are expected to operate normally on those dates.
