Questions people ask
When is Guru Purnima in 2027?
Guru Purnima 2027 is on Sunday, 18 July 2027 in Delhi. Purnima is in force at sunrise on this day.
Why do some calendars give a different date for Guru Purnima?
Because Guru Purnima is set by a tithi, and a tithi begins and ends at any hour, so it usually touches two days. Each observance names the part of the day its tithi must hold, and when the tithi holds that part of two days, or of neither, a classical rule decides. Calendars that count the month from the full moon, or follow the Vaishnava reckoning, can keep it a day apart. The dates here follow the rules DrikPanchang follows, and each one says which rule applied.
Is Guru Purnima on the same day in every city?
Usually, but not always. Sunrise, sunset and moonrise differ from place to place, so a tithi that changes near one of those moments can fall on different days in different cities. The dates here are for Delhi; choose another city above to see its dates.
