**MUMBAI, INDIA** – With the upcoming Bank Holiday on November 30th, a fifth Saturday, many are wondering about banking access. While bank branches will be open as per normal scheduling (first, third, and fifth Saturdays), customers are encouraged to utilize readily available digital banking services.
According to Reserve Bank of India guidelines, most private and public sector banks remain closed on second and fourth Saturdays and Sundays. However, digital services such as online transactions, ATMs, UPI platforms, and net banking remain operational throughout the Bank Holiday weekend. Customers can conduct most financial transactions from home, including investing in FDs, RDs and other investment schemes via net banking or mobile banking apps, eliminating the need to visit a physical branch.
