Islamic Calendar 2027 India – Ramadan, Eid, Muharram Dates
Here is the complete Islamic (Hijri) calendar for 2027 with the expected dates in India and in Saudi Arabia (Umm al-Qura). The year 2027 covers the second half of Hijri 1448 and most of 1449. Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin around 9 February in India, Eid ul-Fitr on 10 March and Eid ul-Adha (Bakrid) on 17 May.
All dates depend on the sighting of the moon. In India the new month usually starts one day after Saudi Arabia, so the India column is our best estimate. Please confirm with your local Ruet-e-Hilal committee or masjid closer to the date.

Why are India’s dates different from Saudi Arabia?
Each Islamic month starts when the new crescent moon is sighted. Because of geography, the moon is often seen in India one evening after it is seen in Arabia, so Indian dates are frequently one day later.
