Overview

• Confirmed festival dates include Onam and Teachers’ Day on September 5, Ganesh Visarjan and Anant Chaturdashi on September 6, a total lunar eclipse on September 7, Pitru Paksha from September 8–21, and Shardiya Navratri beginning September 22 with Durga Ashtami on September 30.
• Banks will operate per the RBI holiday framework with state-specific festival closures and the usual second and fourth Saturdays and Sundays, including listed dates such as Navratra Sthapna on September 22 and Durga Puja on September 29–30 in several states.
• Stock exchanges report no additional weekday holidays for September, so NSE and BSE trading is expected to run on all working days with closures limited to weekends.
• School breaks are reported for Milad‑Un‑Nabi on September 5 and for Durga Puja/Navratri periods around September 22, 29 and 30, though exact closures differ by state and institution.
• Outlets advise parents, students and customers to verify final school circulars and local bank-branch notices, as regional observances and operational hours can vary.
