No leap month in 2027

After 2026's extra Jyeshtha, 2027 is an ordinary 12-month year, so most lunisolar festivals move back 10–19 days earlier than in 2026 — Diwali, for example, moves from November 8 to October 29. The next Adhik Masa falls in 2029.

Gujarati calendar 2027: what to know

In 2027, Bestu Varas falls on a Saturday (October 30). Compared with 2026, the Moon-based festivals shift: Ram Navami 20 days later, Maha Shivaratri 19 days later, Akshaya Tritiya 19 days later, Holi 18 days later. Fixed to the solar calendar or a civil date, these stay on (almost) the same day in both years: Uttarayan. The 13 dates listed below run from January to October 2027.
