In a move to facilitate smooth financial transactions, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has announced that all banks will remain open on 31st March 2025, despite it being a public holiday. This decision aims to assist taxpayers in completing their financial obligations before the end of the fiscal year.
In a notification issued on Monday, the RBI stated that special clearing operations will be conducted across the country to ensure the seamless processing of government receipts and payments within the current financial year. The central bank has also issued separate instructions to all banks, directing them to keep their branches open for over-the-counter transactions during normal working hours on the day.
