New Delhi: Banks across various parts of the country will remain closed on several days in the month of March 2022. If you have important banking work lined up in March, you must take note of the important days on which bank branches will be closed in India.

In total, banks will remain shut for a total of 13 days in March 2022, of which 7 are as per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) holiday calendar list while the remaining holidays are that of weekends -- Saturdays and Sundays.

However, bank customers should note that all the banks will NOT be closed for all 13 days in all states or regions of the country. The reason for this is the total number of holidays in different parts of the country depend on state-observed holidays. For instance, most bank branches will be closed for Bihar Divas in Bihar but NOT closed for the same festival in Tamil Nadu.
