What's Available
Bank unions had a long-standing demand for these holidays, and the RBI made it a rule in 2015 to keep banks closed on the second and fourth Saturdays. This means you can't do any in-branch transactions on February 28. If you're thinking of updating your KYC, making a Demand Draft, or using your locker, it's best to plan ahead.

Digital Transactions
Even though branches are closed, you don't need to worry. Digital transactions will be fully active. Internet banking, UPI, mobile apps, and ATMs will be available 24/7. However, some services like NEFT or RTGS might work only during specific hours or could be slightly delayed on a holiday.
