Many Chhattisgarh government holidays are also observed by banks, but not every bank holiday is identical in every branch. Banks may follow RBI instructions in addition to state notifications, so branch-specific closures should be verified separately.
The list includes important holidays such as Maha Shivaratri, Holi, Ram Navami, Mahavir Jayanti, in addition to national holidays and other officially notified observances for 2026.
Yes. The Chhattisgarh holiday calendar includes the three national holidays observed across India: Republic Day on 26 January, Independence Day on 15 August, and Gandhi Jayanti on 2 October.
Private companies usually observe the three national holidays, but their full holiday schedule can differ from the state government calendar. Company leave policies, labour law requirements, and industry practices all affect which additional holidays are given.
The official holiday notification is generally published by the concerned Chhattisgarh government department on its official website or in its annual gazette notification. It is best to verify the latest notice if you need confirmation for office, school, or bank closure.
