- On a Sunday. The list also names Independence Day (15 August); Guru Nanak's Birthday (14 November). These fall on a Sunday, so they are not counted here.
- The dates come from unofficial calendar sites, and several of those only publish automatic estimates.
- Left out because the date is awaited: the Guru Gobind Singh Ji birthday holiday. In 2026 the notification said it would be declared by the Government of Punjab.
- Independence Day and Guru Nanak's Birthday fall on a Sunday in 2027. Maharishi Valmiki's Birthday (15 October) rests on one list and the central order.
- Holi is on 23 March, as in the Central Government's 2027 order. Some calendars show 22 March, so the date can differ by a day.
- Optional holidays. Each employee may take two restricted holidays from a separate list. The 2027 restricted list has not been published.
- Source difference. Id-ul-Fitr: 10 March (qppstudio, Hyring, PublicHolidays.in, central order) vs 9 March (officeholidays). Chose 10 March.
- Source difference. Mahavir Jayanti: 19 April (qppstudio, PublicHolidays.in, central order) vs 18 April (officeholidays). Chose 19 April.

Building your company's Chandigarh calendar
If you run HR for a company with staff in Chandigarh, treat this list as your starting point. Add the national days your policy gives, decide whether you offer floating holidays, say in writing what happens when a holiday falls on a weekend, and publish the final calendar before the year begins. If you have offices in several states, keep one calendar for each.
For the central government list, see Central Government holiday list 2027. The Chandigarh list for 2026 is at Chandigarh holiday list 2026.

Chandigarh 2027 holiday list (provisional), compiled from officeholidays.com, qppstudio.net, Hyring and PublicHolidays.in, read on 10 November 2026. The Chandigarh government has not published its holiday notification for 2027 yet (last checked 10 November 2026). We put this list together from officeholidays.com, qppstudio.net, Hyring and PublicHolidays.in, and checked every festival date against the Central Government's 2027 order. Dates can change when the state notifies. We update this page as soon as it does, so check back before you plan leave or payroll, and confirm with your office circular. Weekdays were checked against the calendar. Rules last reviewed 9 November 2026.
