Banks across the country would be closed for almost half of the month in August in many states. If you have any urgent business with the bank coming up, plan it accordingly.

According to the Reserve bank of India (RBI) holiday list, banks across the country would remain close for 15 days taking into account state-specific leaves and the weekends. From this list of 15 holidays, 7 days are the usual weekends off, while the other eight stand as the RBI-listed holidays.
