Are Banks Closed Today for Buddha Purnima? See Full Schedule for Bank Holidays in May 2025
As Buddha Purnima is on May 12 (today), many people are wondering if banks are open. All banks in India are closed today (May 12) on the occasion of Buddha Purnima, a significant religious festival.
The Reserve Bank of india has announced six holidays in the month of May 2025. In addition to this, banks will also remain closed on all Sundays and the second and fourth Saturdays in May. Therefore, if you’re planning to visit your bank this week, it is important to check the holiday schedule. Here is the bank holiday full schedule.



When banks are shut, you can use ATMs to access funds. You can also use banking apps, as these services are available unless there is any technical error or maintenance closure announced by the bank. However, you will not be able to process transactions using cheques or promissory notes, as they fall under the Negotiable Instruments Act and are not available on holidays.
