The list of festival holidays is different for different states. So, when you refer to the NCR, it consists of two more states - Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. However, for Delhi:

"Religious festival" has been defined to mean any festival which the Government may, by notification in the Official Gazette, declare to be a religious festival for the purpose of this Act. By Notification No. F 12 (54) I & L dated 31st January 1956, published in the Delhi State Gazette Part V dated 9th February 1976, at page 69, the Government has declared the following as religious festivals:

- Holi
- Dussehra
- Janam Ashtami
- Chet Shudi Parwa
- Baisakhi
- Guru Nanak's Birthday
- Guru Govind Singh's Birthday
- Id-ul-Zuha
- Id-ul-Fitar
- Christmas
- Lord Mahavir's Birthday

Additionally, Republic Day (26th Jan.), Gandhi Jayanti (2nd Oct.), and Independence Day (15th Aug.) have been declared as National Festivals.
