Tomorrow, on 1 April 2025, banks across the country will be open, but customers will not be able to carry out any transactions.
Although all bank branches will remain open, they will not be available for public dealings. This means customers cannot visit the bank to complete any work.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has declared a bank holiday for the general public due to the financial year-end closing.
Why Will Banks Be Closed on April 1?
Banks will be closed for customer transactions on Tuesday, 1 April, because they will be completing their financial year-end processes.
On this day, banks will be engaged in account-closing activities, preventing them from providing any services to customers. The RBI has listed this as a public holiday in its official calendar.
