Bank of Baroda is a public sector bank headquartered in Vadodara, India. After the State Bank of India, it is the second largest public sector bank in India having 132 million customers, and a total business of US $218 billion. It ranked 1145 on the Forbes Global 2000 list as per data for the year 2019.
In India, a bank holiday is considered to be a public holiday. But, all public holidays cannot be considered to be as bank holidays. All the bank holidays are declared by Central / State Governments / Union Territories under NI (Negotiable Instruments) Act. Each and every bank shall follow the guidelines issued by The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) with respect to the list of bank holidays released by them every year.
Each and every state in India in the significance of its cultural and religious diversity has local festivals and therefore the list of Bank of Baroda holidays differs from one state to another. Also, the Bank of Baroda remains closed every 2nd and 4th Saturday and all Sunday of every month.
Let’s check the list of Bank of Baroda holidays in 2023 released by the Reserve Bank of India.
