If you are planning to visit your bank on Saturday, 15 November 2025, it is important to know whether branches across the country will remain open. Many customers assume that banks stay closed on weekends, but that depends on which Saturday it is in the month.

Since 15 November falls on the third Saturday, all banks across India will operate as usual. There are no state-specific festivals or holidays scheduled for this date, which means customers can complete all their in-branch banking tasks without disruption.

Why Banks Will Be Open on Saturday

According to Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines, banks remain closed on:

• All Sundays

• The second Saturday of every month

• The fourth Saturday of every month

This schedule applies uniformly to private, public, foreign, cooperative, and regional rural banks. Since this Saturday is the third Saturday, branches will function normally.

If you have deposits, withdrawals, document updates, or other in-branch services pending, you can comfortably visit your nearest branch tomorrow.

No Festival Holidays in November’s Third Week

Most major Indian festivals — including Diwali, Govardhan Puja, Bhai Dooj, and Chhath Puja — were celebrated in early November or in late October. As a result, the remaining weeks of November 2025 do not include any significant festival-related bank closures.

Banks this month are following only their weekly holiday schedule, with no additional state-wise public holidays announced for mid-November.

Remaining Bank Holidays in November 2025

Here is the list of the upcoming weekly offs for the rest of the month:

• 16 November – Sunday

• 22 November – Fourth Saturday

• 23 November – Sunday

• 30 November – Sunday

Apart from these weekly holidays, no extra bank closures are scheduled for the second half of the month.
