Hi..Noticed that one of the company located in Bangalore has only 11 holidays declared for calendar year 2016. As per my knowledge, any company located in Karnataka must have at least 15 holidays declared for a calendar year.

The statutory holidays for an establishment to observe are governed by the States' Shops and Establishments Act and the National Festival Holidays Act as well as the Negotiable Instruments Act by which the State notifies applicability of holidays to establishments located in it., You may go through these Acts to ascertain how many holidays are mandatory for Karnataka State.

An establishment in Bangalore is expected to follow the holidays as per Karnataka Industrial Establishments (National and Festival) Holidays Act. As per the said Act there should be 10 holidays in a year of which five holidays are national holidays which will not change and are mandatory and five are festival holidays. National Holidays under the Karnataka Act are, January 26th, May 1st, August 15th, October 2nd and November 1st (State Formation day) These holidays are mandatory whereas an establishment is free to chose the festival holidays as per the interests of the employees.
