From the corporate hubs of Gurugram to the industrial belts of Faridabad, banking operations in the state pause for a mix of national mandates and regional cultural milestones.
The latter part of the year features several significant dates, including Janmashtami (Sept 4) and Gandhi Jayanti (Oct 2), which falls on a Friday, creating a perfect 3-day weekend. As the year winds down, the focus turns to the festive season with Dussehra (Oct 20) and Guru Nanak Jayanti (Nov 24). Notably, while Diwali (Nov 8) and Haryana Day (Nov 1) fall on Sundays in 2026, banks will observe Vishwakarma Day/Govardhan Puja on Monday, November 9.
