Questions people ask
Is Speed Post delivered today?
This status is for post office counters in Patna, not a delivery guarantee. Delivery usually pauses on holidays when counters are closed.
Are post offices open on Saturday?
Saturdays — including the 2nd and 4th — are not on India Post’s holiday list. Saturday hours vary by office, so confirm timings with your post office.
Who decides post office holidays?
India Post publishes an All-India list (14 holidays in 2026) and a separate list for each postal circle (usually 17 days), based on the central government (DoPT) holiday orders.
Are post offices closed on bank holidays?
Not necessarily. Many RBI bank holidays are state festivals that are not central government holidays, so post offices often stay open when banks are closed.
