Bank Holiday on Tuesday: Are banks open or closed on Nov 10? Check city-wise list of holidays

New Delhi: As the festive season is ongoing, people have been on holiday, enjoying time with their families and celebrating together. However, bank holidays across the country may vary by state and region. Amid the Diwali celebrations continuing into this week, bank customers may need to check the schedule of bank holidays before planning a visit to a bank branch.

It is important to know that not all occasions are celebrated across the country, due to which some holidays may apply to banks in only certain regions. As per the calendar of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), November 10, Tuesday, would be marked by Diwali (Bali Pratipada), Govardhan Puja, Laxmi Puja, and Vikram Samvant New Year Day. Bank holidays on account of these festivals would be observed in select regions instead of across the whole country.
