Vat Savitri Vrat in 2027
Vat Savitri Vrat falls on 4 June 2027, a Friday in 2027.
What Vat Savitri Vrat is
Savitri's vrat, kept by married women at the banyan tree. North India keeps it on the Jyeshtha Amavasya; Maharashtra, Gujarat and much of the south keep the same vrat on the Jyeshtha Purnima a fortnight later.
How this date was worked out
The rule: Amavasya tithi of the Krishna paksha in purnimanta Jyeshtha, prevailing at sunrise. The date is derived from the panchang - the same computation that drives this site's daily pages. Note that the day is fixed by the tithi running during the observance window, not the one at sunrise; that is why several festivals land on a day whose sunrise tithi is something else entirely.
Regional variation
This page derives the Amavasya date. If your family keeps Vat Purnima, the observance falls on the Jyeshtha Purnima instead - a different day, not a different rule. These dates are computed for New Delhi and follow the north-Indian (purnimanta) convention. Tamil, Bengali and Kerala traditions differ on several festivals, and a tithi boundary falling near a window edge can shift the day for a distant city. Check a local panchang before committing to a fast or an event.
