Bank holidays are different for each state, however, there are some days when banks are shut across India.

Bank Holidays in February 2022: All private and government banks will be shut for a total of 12 days in the second month of the year - February 2022. We would suggest that if you have any important work related to the bank to complete, you should do it while keeping in mind these holidays. 

RBI guidelines clearly state that the public sector, private sector, foreign banks, cooperative banks, and regional banks in India will stay shut on the specified dates. RBI announced holidays for lenders under these categories - the Negotiable Instruments Act, Holiday, Real Time Gross Settlement Holiday, and Banks’ Closing of Accounts.
