- The fullest month is May with 23 working days; the lightest is February with 20.
- Counts use nationwide holidays only — regional ones (a state day in the US, a cantonal day in Switzerland) reduce the total further where they apply.
- Weekends are Saturday and Sunday. Half-day customs — a Christmas Eve afternoon, a Bayram eve — are not subtracted.
Which holidays are subtracted
The 3 nationwide holidays falling on weekdays come from the same dataset as the India public holidays 2029 page, which lists each one with the weekday it lands on — and how India's holiday system works:
- India has exactly three national holidays anchored in the constitution’s civic calendar — Republic Day (26 January), Independence Day (15 August) and Gandhi Jayanti (2 October). They are the only days off that apply to the whole country, and they are what this page and the generator mark.
- Everything else works on lists: the central government publishes gazetted holidays (mandatory for its offices) and restricted holidays (each employee picks a small number) every year, and every state issues its own list on top.
- The great festivals — Diwali, Holi, Eid, Onam, Durga Puja — follow lunar and lunisolar calendars, land on different dates each year and differ by state, which is why an honest national list stays short instead of guessing.
