Longest spell of holidays for Banks from Sept 30

All banks, across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, will be having one of the longest spell of holidays from September 30.

In view of half-yearly closing, the banks will not do regular transactions on September 30 and October 1. They will remain close for the next two days on account of Gandhi Jayanthi (Oct 2) and Dusshera (Oct 3). Being Saturday, the banks will work for only half a day on October 4 and there are possibilities of thin attendance as many employees would prefer to take leave in view of festivals. The next day, October 5, is a Sunday. However, with Eid-ul-Adha falling on the Sunday (Oct 5), the banks will remain close on October 6 (Monday).
