Frequently Asked Questions
Working days are the weekdays (Monday to Friday) on which businesses and government offices typically operate. Saturdays and Sundays are excluded from the count. For example, from 1 June to 15 June 2026, there are 11 working days after excluding 4 weekend days. In India, most banks, courts, and central government offices follow a 5-day work week, though some state offices still work on Saturdays.

To count weekdays between two dates, exclude all Saturdays and Sundays falling within the date range. For example, between 10 June and 20 June 2026, the calendar has 11 days total. Removing 4 weekend days (13-14 June and 20-21 June in that range) gives approximately 8 working days. Manual counting is error-prone for longer periods. Project managers, HR teams, and payroll departments use this regularly for deadline tracking and notice period calculations.

Indian banks follow RBI-declared holidays which include national holidays (Republic Day, Independence Day, Gandhi Jayanti), state-specific festivals (Diwali, Eid, Pongal, Onam), and bank-specific closures. In some months, banks can have 5-6 non-working days beyond weekends. This is crucial for NEFT/RTGS settlement, loan disbursement, and cheque clearance timelines. For strict bank-specific working day counts, always add RBI holiday calendar to your calculation. Use the free Working Days Calculator on AbacusHand to calculate your exact result instantly.
For employees paid on a per-day or loss-of-pay (LOP) basis, working days directly determine the salary. For example, if an employee's monthly salary is Rs 30,000 and June has 26 working days, the per-day salary = Rs 30,000/26 = Rs 1,154. If the employee took 3 unpaid days off, deduction = 3 x Rs 1,154 = Rs 3,462, and net salary = Rs 26,538. Most Indian payroll systems use actual working days in the month for LOP calculations.

Most Indian employment contracts specify a notice period of 30, 60, or 90 calendar days. However, some companies specify notice periods in working days (e.g., 45 working days). A 30 calendar-day notice starting on 1 June 2026 ends on 1 July 2026. A 30 working-day notice from the same date would end approximately on 10 July 2026 (accounting for 10 weekend days). Always confirm with your HR whether the notice period is in calendar days or working days to plan your last working day accurately.
