Quick answer

Working days are the days between two dates minus weekends and holidays. From 1 to 31 October 2026, with Saturdays and Sundays off, there are 22 weekdays; subtract any public holidays that fall on weekdays, such as Gandhi Jayanti on 2 October. Banks in India close on the second and fourth Saturdays and on Sundays, so choose that option for bank timelines.

How to use this calculator

  1. Enter the start and end dates (both counted).
  2. Choose the weekly off pattern.
  3. Enter how many holidays fall on working days in that period.
