How to read this calendar
The tithi and nakshatra in each row are those prevailing at sunrise in New Delhi, because a Hindu day begins at sunrise. A festival can fall on a date whose sunrise tithi is different: Diwali, for example, follows the Amavasya at Pradosh, after sunset. The list covers major festivals and the monthly vrats; local and family observances may not appear.

Frequently asked questions
Which Hindu months are May 2027?
May 2027 covers Vaishakh and Jyeshtha in the purnimanta calendar of North India, and Chaitra and Vaisakha in the amanta calendar of South and West India.
When is Ekadashi in May 2027?
Varuthini Ekadashi is on Sunday, 2 May 2027; Mohini Ekadashi is on Sunday, 16 May 2027.
Which festivals are in May 2027?

What is the difference between amanta and purnimanta?
An amanta month ends on Amavasya and is used in South and West India. A purnimanta month ends on Purnima and is used in North India. Tithis fall on the same days; only the month name of the Krishna Paksha differs.
Why can a tithi differ in my city?
The tithi shown is the one prevailing at sunrise in New Delhi. Sunrise differs from city to city, so when a tithi changes close to sunrise your city can show a different tithi that day. Open the Panchang for your city to check.
Why does a date sometimes repeat or skip a tithi?
A tithi can run from before one sunrise to after the next, so it shows on two days, or it can begin and end between two sunrises, so it shows on no day. Both are normal in the Hindu calendar.
