Good to know
- Bhaubeej, Wednesday 11 November 2026. News reports say the state added this as an extra holiday. It is not in the list we read, so we have not counted it. Check the General Administration Department circular before you plan around it.
- 1 April 2026. Reported as a holiday for banks only (annual closing), not a general holiday for government offices. It is not in this list.
- Compared with the central list. Some dates differ from the central government list because states follow their own notification. For example, Holi is on 3 March here and 4 March in the central list, and Bakri Id is on 28 May here and 27 May in the central list.
- No replacement day is shown when a holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday.
- Id-Ul-Fitra, Id-Uz-Zuha, Moharum and Id-E-Milad depend on the moon and can move by a day.
Building your company's Maharashtra calendar
If you run HR for a company with staff in Maharashtra, treat this list as your starting point. Add the national days your policy gives, decide whether you offer floating holidays, say in writing what happens when a holiday falls on a weekend, and publish the final calendar before the year begins. If you have offices in several states, keep one calendar for each.
For the central government list, see Central Government holiday list 2026.
