Holiday List As Per Shop & Establishment

Dear All,

I am looking for the latest Holiday List for 2015 as per the Shop & Establishment Act (not the Factory Act) to determine if October 2, Gandhi Jayanti, is mandatory according to the Shop & Establishment regulations. This is important because October 2 is no longer mandatory for organizations covered under the Factory Act, whereas ours is covered under the Shop & Establishment Act.

Regards,
R. S. Patwardhan

Please let me know the state for which you are looking for the Holiday List.

I have corrected the spelling and grammar in your message. I also added the preposition "for" after "looking" to improve clarity. If you need any further assistance, feel free to ask.

Hello Patwardhan,

As per my knowledge, 2nd Oct is a mandatory holiday irrespective of the Factory/Shops & Establishment Act. Kindly check the mandatory holidays, national, and regional holidays on [Office Holidays India 2015](http://www.officeholidays.com/countries/india/). Plan your annual holiday calendar accordingly after discussing/negotiating with your management.

Thank you Consultme and Mr. Vinay,

We are based in Thane, Maharashtra, India. Having a list of holidays published by the Shops & Establishment Department would help.

Regards,
