Chandigarh bank holidays 2026: banks in Chandigarh are closed on 16 days under the RBI list for Chandigarh, plus the second and fourth Saturday of every month and all Sundays. That makes 40 weekday and Saturday closures in all.
This is the RBI list for its Chandigarh office. Banks in Punjab and Haryana can also close on holidays notified by those state governments, so check with your branch.
How bank holidays work
The RBI publishes one list for each of its regional offices. Banks in that state follow the list, and a state government can add a local holiday under the Negotiable Instruments Act for a district or town. On these days branches are closed and cheques are not cleared, but UPI, net banking, mobile banking and ATMs usually keep working.
