00:00 Usually, on Sunday, the banks are off, but this time on Sunday, the banks will be open.
00:06 And this will happen on March 31.
00:08 This instruction has been issued by the RBI.
00:10 For those who know in detail, this will only happen this time or the banks will be open every Sunday.
00:14 Why was the bank decided to remain open on March 31?
00:18 This news is important for lakhs of bank employees.
00:21 The Indian Reserve Bank, i.e. the RBI, issued a notification and ordered that
00:25 all banks will remain open on March 31, 2024, despite the fact that it is Sunday.
00:30 And the banks have been asked to publicize this.
00:34 Due to the closing of the financial year 2023, the RBI has decided
00:40 that the government should not have any problem in keeping track of all its receipts and payments.
00:46 The instructions sent to the banks have been said that
00:48 the transactions that take place by the end of the financial year should be recorded in the same year.
00:52 That's why the banks will remain open.
00:54 All banks will remain open on Saturday and Sunday.
00:56 In addition, the NEFT and RTGS transactions will continue till 12 pm.
01:01 In addition, special measures will be taken for the clearing of the government cheque.
01:05 Although the stock market is going to remain closed.
01:07 The Reserve Bank has asked all its agency banks to keep all branches related to the government business open on March 31, i.e. Sunday.
01:14 For this, the banks have been asked to promote it.
01:18 So that everyone knows that their branches will remain open on March 31.
01:22 But will the public be able to work on this day?
01:25 Or the information related to the government's payments and receipts will be done by the bank employees.
01:31 So, according to the RBI, on Sunday, the public will also be working.
01:34 All the facilities given to them will continue as normal days.
01:39 RBI Chief General Manager Sunil T.S. Nayar has issued this order.
01:43 If we talk about which departments will remain open apart from the banks,
01:46 then there is also an income tax department in it, which has decided to keep all offices open.
01:51 The department has also canceled the holidays of Saturday and Sunday along with the holidays of Good Friday.
01:56 The income tax department has also canceled the long weekend due to Good Friday.
02:01 Because Good Friday is on March 29, Saturday on March 30 and Sunday on March 31.
02:06 That's why there was a long three-day holiday.
02:08 This would have hindered the department's work at the end of the financial year.
02:11 March 31 is the end of the financial year 2023-2024.
02:16 That's why the income tax department has said that the IT offices across the country will remain open on March 29, 30 and 31.
02:22 Now, let's tell you an interesting fact that when was this first co-operation made?
02:27 So, last time it happened 5 years ago in 2019.
02:30 During that time, on March 31, it was raining on Sunday, due to which all the banks were ordered to keep open.
02:37 That is, if you have any work that is stuck,
02:41 you can finish all your work on the closing day of the financial year on March 31.
02:47 That's all in the video.
