Banks in India will be closed on December 27, 2023, because it's the fourth Saturday of the month.
This is a rule from the Reserve Bank of India.
So, if you need to go to the bank for things like cash or papers, you'll have to wait until Monday, December 29, 2023.
But don't worry, you can still use your phone or computer for banking, like UPI or internet banking.
Also, some states like Meghalaya, Mizoram, and Manipur have extra holidays on December 30 and 31 for special events, but banks in other states will be open on those days.
Banks across India will be closed on December 27, 2023, due to it being the fourth Saturday of the month.

The RBI classifies this holiday under the Negotiable Instruments Act.
