In India, numerous festivals and holidays are celebrated, a nation with a rich cultural tradition. People celebrate both official holidays and personal holidays. It is significant to remember that every holiday has its unique meaning and is observed with zeal. Gazetted holidays and Restricted holidays are the two types of government holidays. Now, we have covered the Central government holiday list, official holidays, and restricted and gazetted holiday lists in India.

In addition to the three National Holidays, employees are entitled to 14 Gazetted Holidays and 2 Restricted Holidays annually. Of India’s fourteen proclaimed holidays, eleven are observed nationwide while the other three are left to local discretion. Employees are permitted to choose any two limited holidays from a list produced locally, considering regional characteristics, to be off work during the course of a year.

The circular released by the Ministry of Personnel, Public, Grievances and Pensions served as the foundation for the List of Gazetted and Restricted Holidays of India 2023. 10–14 Public holidays are listed in the List of Gazetted and Restricted Holidays 2023 on our website and we have provided PDf to download.

Due to the fact that weekends are now excluded from the definition of a working day, offices currently operate on a five-day workweek, which results in 104 holidays annually. There are also three national holidays. Additionally, government civilian employees are entitled to 30 days of earned leave, 20 days of half-pay leave (which can be converted to medical leave), and 8 days of unscheduled leave per year.
