As we step into mid-June, it's crucial for bank customers to stay informed about upcoming holidays to avoid last-minute troubles. Today, June 11, 2025, marks the celebration of Sant Kabir Jayanti, a significant occasion in several Indian states. But will banks be open or closed today? Here’s what the RBI’s holiday calendar has to say.

Banks Closed in Select States on Kabir Jayanti

According to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) holiday schedule, banks are shut today in Sikkim (Gangtok) and Himachal Pradesh (Shimla) in observance of Sant Kabir Jayanti and Saga Dawa, respectively. If you have important work at a physical bank branch—like depositing a cheque, updating your passbook, or resolving an account-related query—it’s best to confirm the status of bank operations in your city before heading out.

No Branch Service? Use Digital Banking Instead

While bank branches may remain closed during holidays, digital banking services are available round the clock. Customers can continue to use UPI, net banking, mobile banking, and ATM facilities for seamless transactions. Whether it’s paying bills, transferring money, or checking your balance, these services ensure your banking needs are not disrupted.

Final Word

Before planning a bank visit, especially during festival seasons or local events, it's always wise to refer to the RBI’s official holiday calendar. This not only saves you time but also helps in scheduling your financial activities more efficiently.

So, if you’re located in Sikkim or Himachal Pradesh, banks will remain closed today. However, residents in other states can expect normal operations. And even if your local branch is shut, digital platforms are at your service 24x7.

Stay updated, plan smartly, and keep banking hassle-free!
