Are banks closed on May 27 or 28, 2026, on Bakri ID (Id-Uz-Zuha))? Confusion about the date of Bakrid gathered momentum after the central government announced that all its administrative offices located in Delhi will be closed on May 28 instead of its earlier holiday date of May 27. The Telangana government has also postponed the Bakrid holiday from May 27 to May 28, 2026.
As bank holidays vary from state to state, customers are advised to check the holiday schedule applicable in their respective states before planning branch visits or important banking transactions.
