Holiday list 2027: central government and state-wise.
The central government’s 2027 list has 17 gazetted holidays, from Republic Day on Tuesday 26 January to Christmas on Saturday 25 December; six of them, on five dates, fall on a Saturday or Sunday. DoPT issued it on 16 July 2026 (O.M. F.No.12/2/2023-JCA). Each state notifies its own list, most in November or December. Below, a state shows its own list with the notification’s number and date where one is published, and otherwise the days its law fixes and the central dates.
LekhaHR runs attendance, leave and payroll for small Indian teams from ₹59 per employee a month (₹99 for the first 25), payroll included, no minimum: it starts each office's holiday list from its state's days, and attendance and leave count them.
Key facts
- 17 gazetted holidays for central government offices in Delhi in 2027, and 32 restricted holidays, of which an employee takes any 2 (O.M. F.No.12/2/2023-JCA, 16 Jul 2026).
- Outside Delhi, central offices keep 14 compulsory holidays and 3 more that the state capital's welfare coordination committee picks from a list of 12.
- Six of the 17, on five dates, fall on a Saturday or Sunday: Independence Day and Milad-un-Nabi on Sunday 15 August, Gandhi Jayanti on Saturday 2 October, Dussehra on Saturday 9 October, Guru Nanak’s Birthday on Sunday 14 November and Christmas on Saturday 25 December.
- Id-ul-Fitr, Id-ul-Zuha, Muharram and Milad-un-Nabi follow the moon, so their dates can move by a day at short notice.
- A private office follows its state's Shops and Establishments law: 26 January, 15 August and 2 October everywhere, plus the days and festival count the state sets.

17, for central government offices in Delhi and New Delhi, in DoPT's O.M. F.No.12/2/2023-JCA of 16 Jul 2026. Independence Day and Milad-un-Nabi share Sunday 15 August, so the 17 fall on 16 dates; five of those are a Saturday or Sunday, which leaves 11 on a Monday to Friday.
When is Diwali in 2027?
Friday 29 October 2027 in the central government list. Naraka Chaturdashi is a restricted holiday on Thursday 28 October, Govardhan Puja on Saturday 30 October and Bhai Duj on Sunday 31 October.
When is Holi in 2027?
Tuesday 23 March 2027 in the central government list, with Holika Dahan on Monday 22 March as a restricted holiday. Some states keep Holi on 22 March; the state's own list decides for state offices.
Does a private company have to follow the government holiday list?
No. A private office follows its state's Shops and Establishments law: 26 January, 15 August and 2 October everywhere, the state days its law names (1 May in many states) and the number of festival days it requires, which the employer picks. The government list is where most companies start choosing those festival days.
What is a restricted holiday?
A day an employee may take off from a list of 32 instead of every office closing; central government staff pick any 2 a year. Many private companies copy the idea as optional holidays, with a number each person picks.
Can I download the 2027 holiday list?
Yes. Each list on this page downloads as a spreadsheet (CSV) or as a calendar file (.ics) that opens in Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar. No email and no sign-up.
Next: apply for the day off with the leave application format, or mark it on the attendance sheet: the attendance sheet January 2027 and each month of 2027 come with the central days marked. Sick and maternity leave follow the leave rules by state.
