January 2027 Calendar for Karnataka

The January 2027 calendar can be useful for people living in Bengaluru, Mysuru, Mangaluru, Hubballi, Belagavi, Shivamogga, Tumakuru and other parts of Karnataka.

However, Panchang calculations can differ slightly from one location to another. Sunrise, sunset, moonrise, tithi ending time and some festival observance timings may change depending on geographical location.

For this reason, if you are planning an important religious ceremony, fasting Parana or Muhurat, it is better to use the Panchang calculated specifically for your city.

  • Check Amavasya and Purnima
  • Plan Sankranti celebrations
