Shukla Panchami · amanta Magha · computed for New Delhi
Vasant Panchami in 2027 falls on Thursday, 11 February 2027. It is kept on the Shukla Panchami of amanta Magha.
Why Vasant Panchami Is on 11 February in 2027
The Shukla Panchami begins at 03:05 on 11 February 2027 and ends at 03:18 on 12 February 2027. The 2027 instants are the same everywhere; only the clock they are read on changes. The rule recorded for Vasant Panchami tests the tithi at sunrise, the default test for most of the calendar.
On 11 February 2027 the Sun rises at 07:03 and sets at 18:08 at New Delhi. The Shukla Panchami is running at that sunrise, which is the test, so 11 February 2027 is the day.
In 2027 the Shukla Panchami lasts 24 hours 13 minutes, against 23 hours 18 minutes in 2026 and 26 hours 13 minutes in 2028: a tithi is twelve degrees of the Moon’s gain on the Sun, and the Moon never gains at a steady rate. The day itself runs 11 hours 5 minutes from sunrise to sunset at New Delhi.
The daily panchang for 11 February 2027 gives Shukla Panchami at sunrise; the day before, Shukla Chaturthi; the day after, Shukla Shashthi. At that sunrise the yoga is Sadhya and the karana Bava. The panchang for 11 February 2027 has the rest of the day.
When the Shukla Panchami begins, the Moon is in Uttara Bhadrapada, ruled by Saturn. By sunrise on 11 February 2027 the daily table has it in Revati.

Between Vasant Panchami 2026 and Vasant Panchami 2027 the lunation table has 13 new moons, one more than the usual twelve, because 2026 had Adhika Jyeshtha; thirteen lunations run longer than a solar year, so the date moves later.
In the 2027 table Vasant Panchami comes 17 days after Sakat Chauth and 2 days before Ratha Saptami.
Within six days of Vasant Panchami in 2027: Ratha Saptami (13 February).
