Restricted Holiday
Restricted holidays in India, also known as optional holidays, allow employees to choose which days to take off based on their personal religious or cultural preferences. Unlike gazetted holidays, restricted holidays are not mandatory, and employees are typically allowed to select two to three days from a pre-approved list.
These holidays are meant to accommodate India’s diverse population, with options that include religious festivals like Raksha Bandhan, Karva Chauth, Onam, and Baisakhi. Restricted holidays offer flexibility for individuals to celebrate specific festivals that may not be observed nationwide but hold personal or regional significance.
