Hanuman Jayanti 2027: The Computed Date, Tithi and Muhurat
Quick answer: Hanuman Jayanti 2027 is on Tuesday, 20 April 2027. Computed tithi window 20-04-2027 04:52–21-04-2027 03:57 IST, the sunrise-prevailing (udaya) tithi rule.
Hanuman Jayanti 2027 falls on Tuesday, 20 April 2027. The governing tithi — the Chaitra Purnima observance of Hanuman's birth — runs from 20-04-2027 04:52 IST to 21-04-2027 03:57 IST, computed from the ephemeris with the Lahiri ayanamsa, the way a Panchang actually derives it. The observance follows the sunrise-prevailing (udaya) tithi.
How this date is fixed
Fixed by the panchang rather than the Gregorian calendar, which is why it moves each year:
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Festival | Hanuman Jayanti |
| Fixed by | Chaitra Purnima (north India) |
| Observance note | Observed on different tithis in different regions |
| Why the date moves | A tithi is a precise instant; the local date depends on your time zone |
| Abroad | Use your own city's panchang rather than the Indian date |
How the day is kept
Sundarkand or Hanuman Chalisa path, sindoor and boondi offerings, and satsang mark the day from early morning — the udaya (sunrise-prevailing) Purnima is the day kept.
Why the tithi window matters more than the date
A Hindu festival is not a civil date; it is a tithi caught at a particular quality of time — the sunrise-prevailing (udaya) tithi here. When the tithi straddles two days, the rule decides the day, which is why two neighbouring calendars sometimes disagree while both cite the same sky. The window printed above is the actual astronomy; the rule applied to it is the tradition. Together they give you the answer the forwards never explain. For the method itself, see our muhurat & festivals guide.
