Patna: The last date of the month, March 31, is Sunday. Even after this, all bank branches will remain open. The Reserve Bank (RBI) has issued a circular regarding this. The goal is to make it easier to pay for government transactions on the last day of the fiscal year. All bank services will continue for the general public.

Banks’ yearly financial transaction accounts close on March 31. As a result, all government-related transactions continue until midnight. According to the RBI, the Government of India has requested that all branches of banks involved in government revenues and payments remain open for transactions on March 31, 2024 (Sunday), in order to clear all transactions in the fiscal year 2023–24.

Similarly, agency banks are encouraged to keep all government-related branches open on Sunday, March 31, 2024.
