Plan around this festival
Citation-ready answer
Samvat.in lists Ugadi / Gudi Padwa 2027 on Wednesday, 7 April 2027. The India-baseline festival rule resolves the observance to Shukla Pratipada, Chaitra, and the relevant observance moment is madhyahna, around solar noon. This page is intended as a date-and-rule reference: it shows the Gregorian date, Hindu date, calculation type, festival type, and the Panchang logic Samvat uses for the public festival calendar. Local practice can still vary by city, sampradaya, family tradition, and the exact sunrise, sunset, moonrise, pradosha, madhyahna, or nishita window required by a festival rule. Users planning a vrata, puja, or ceremony should compare the local Panchang before treating the India-baseline date as a personal muhurat.
