Bank Holidays on June 6 and 7, 2025: Will Banks Remain Closed for Bakrid in Your State?
As the festival of Bakrid (Id-ul-Ad’ha / Id-uz-Zuha) approaches, customers across India are wondering if banks will remain open on June 6 and June 7, 2025. According to the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) official holiday calendar and the Central Government’s public holiday list for 2025, banks in various states will observe a holiday for Bakrid on different dates.
🔒 Bank Holiday on June 6, 2025 (Friday)
In one Indian state, June 6, 2025, has been declared a public holiday for Id-ul-Ad’ha. Therefore, banks will remain closed in that particular state on Friday. However, banks in the rest of the country are expected to function normally on this day.
🕌 Bakrid Bank Holiday on June 7, 2025 (Saturday)
June 7, 2025, which is a Saturday, will be a bank holiday in most Indian states to mark the observance of Bakrid. Typically, the first Saturday of every month is a working day for banks. However, this year, the celebration of Id-uz-Zuha falls on the same day, prompting bank closures in several regions.
This means that banking services will not be available in many parts of India on June 7, even though it is not a second or fourth Saturday.
📅 Extended Bank Holiday Weekend for Some States
To summarize the bank closures:
-
June 6 (Friday): Banks closed in one state for Bakrid.
-
June 7 (Saturday): Banks closed in most states for Bakrid.
-
June 8 (Sunday): Banks closed nationwide as Sunday is a weekly holiday.
So, customers in some regions may experience a three-day long weekend of bank closures. It is advisable to complete all urgent bank work before June 6, especially if you are in a state where banks will remain shut for multiple days.
