Bank Holiday Today, 29 August: Are SBI, PNB, HDFC, ICICI, and Axis Bank branches open?

Mint 1d ago·29 Aug 2026, 2:07 am

Today, August 29, is a bank holiday in India, but it falls on a fifth Saturday. This means that scheduled branches of major lenders, including SBI, PNB, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, and Axis Bank, will remain closed for in-person transactions. However, the holiday does not disrupt the banking system, as all digital services, such as mobile apps and internet banking, will function normally.

For investors and customers, this is a routine operational day rather than a market event. The closure of physical branches does not affect stock market trading or digital fund transfers. Investors should note that while bank stocks like Axis Bank are not directly impacted by this holiday, operational efficiency and digital adoption remain key factors for long-term growth.
