Hindu Calendar April 2027
Chaitra – Vaishakh
Every day with the tithi at sunrise, the Purnimanta month (North India’s, ending on the full moon), and the festivals and vrats kept in it, for New Delhi.
The number on each day is the tithi at sunrise in New Delhi, counted within its paksha, as a wall calendar prints it. A date you can tap has its full panchang on a page of its own.
Kharmas Monday, 15 March to Tuesday, 13 April: the Sun in Meen until Mesh Sankranti; it closes a wedding and a mundan through Wednesday, 14 April: the Sun changes rashi after that day’s sunrise, so the day still counts as Kharmas; the panchang still gives dates for a janeu, griha pravesh, a new vehicle or a new business, though many North Indian families wait until it ends.
Chaitra Navratri Wednesday, 7 April to Thursday, 15 April: the spring Navratri, from the Hindu new year to Ram Navami.

The tithi column is the tithi at sunrise in New Delhi. Each vrat and festival is kept by its tithi at its own moment: Pradosh in the evening, Shivratri at midnight (nishita), Sankashti at moonrise, the Purnima fast at midday, Diwali after sunset. So a vrat can fall on a day whose sunrise tithi is still the previous one.

Words on this page
what each term means- Purnimanta: the North Indian calendar, where a month ends on Purnima, the full moon. In the Amanta calendar of the west and south a month ends on Amavasya, so in the dark half the two give the month different names.
- Shukla and Krishna paksha: the bright half of the month, as the Moon grows to Purnima, and the dark half, as it wanes to Amavasya.
- Sankranti: the day the Sun enters a new rashi; Makar Sankranti is the best known.
- Pradosh: the evening hours just after sunset.
- Nishita: the midnight hour, when Shivratri and Janmashtami puja is done.
- Aparahna and madhyahna: the afternoon (the fourth of five equal parts of daylight) and the middle of the day.
- Parana: the window for breaking a fast, such as the Ekadashi fast on the next morning.
- Snan-daan: the holy dip and the gifts given on a Purnima or Amavasya.
- Kshaya: a tithi that begins after one sunrise and ends before the next, so no sunrise shows it; it is kept on the day it begins.
