          The Reserve Bank’s accounting year is July to June.

Hence, the Reserve Bank remains closed for public transactions every July 1 on account of its annual closing of accounts

On a review and in order to facilitate the settlement of market transactions, as also, to aid the transactions of the general public, the Reserve Bank of India has decided that it will remain open for public transactions on July 1, 2015..

In view of the annual closing of its books of account, however, on July 1, 2015–
