Sharad Navratri 2027: The Computed Date, Tithi and Muhurat
Quick answer: Sharad Navratri 2027 is on Thursday, 30 September 2027. Computed tithi window 30-09-2027 08:06–01-10-2027 05:36 IST, the sunrise-prevailing (udaya) tithi.
Sharad Navratri 2027 falls on Thursday, 30 September 2027. The governing tithi — the nine nights of the Devi beginning on Ashwina Shukla Pratipada — runs from 30-09-2027 08:06 IST to 01-10-2027 05:36 IST, computed from the ephemeris with the Lahiri ayanamsa, the way a Panchang actually derives it. The observance follows the sunrise-prevailing (udaya) tithi.
The nine nights run to 08 October, with Vijayadashami following — see Dussehra 2027.
How the day is kept
Ghatasthapana is done while the Pratipada holds the morning — the kalash is established, and the nine nights unfold to Vijayadashami.
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.
Frequently asked questions
When is Sharad Navratri in 2027?

What is the exact tithi time for Sharad Navratri 2027?

Can Ghatasthapana be done any time on the first day?
No — the kalash is established while Pratipada prevails, preferably in the fixed morning span; if the tithi ends early, the window tightens, which is why the computed tithi timing matters.
Should I fix an important beginning on Sharad Navratri 2027?
A festival is auspicious in itself, but a dated personal beginning — a purchase, a launch, a ceremony — is best matched to your own chart and the day's full Panchang. That is a ten-minute check in a consultation.
A festival is a fine day to ask a serious question. One flat, all-inclusive fee of ₹5,100.
