Good to know
- On a Sunday. The list also names Independence Day (15 August); Milad-un-Nabi / Id-e-Milad (15 August); Guru Nanak Jayanti (14 November). These fall on a Sunday, so they are not counted here.
- The holidays follow the 2026 Jharkhand gazette. Dates come from published 2027 calendars. Many of those are automated estimates, not government notices.
- Left out because no two lists agree on a 2027 date yet: Sohrai and Sohrai Khuntav, Holika Dahan, Basant Panchami, Govardhan Puja, Bhaiya Dooj, the second Karma Puja day, the Chhath morning arghya day, Navratra Kalash Sthapana and Maha Saptami. We will add them when the state notifies.
- Hul Diwas, World Adivasi Day, Vishwakarma Puja and Jharkhand Foundation Day fall on the same date every year, so they are carried over from 2026.
- Buddha Purnima is shown without the Pandit Raghunath Murmu anniversary, which the 2026 gazette joined to it. Whether the two coincide in 2027 is not yet known.
- Dates for Eid, Muharram and Milad-un-Nabi depend on the moon and can move by a day.
- 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.
- Saturdays. We could not confirm which Saturdays are off for state offices, so only Sundays are counted as weekly offs.
- Source difference. Maha Navami and Vijayadashami: Office Holidays, Hyring and the Centre put Dussehra on 9 October. CalendarLabs and Public Holidays India put Vijayadashami on Sunday 10 October. We used one combined day, 9 October, as the 2026 gazette did.
- Source difference. Maha Ashtami: CalendarLabs and Public Holidays India give 8 October. The Centre lists Mahashtami on 7 October. We used 8 October.
- Source difference. Muharram: 16 June in Office Holidays, Q++Studio and the Centre; 15 June in CalendarLabs and Public Holidays India. We used 16 June.
- Festivals tied to the moon, such as the Eid festivals and Muharram, can move by a day. Any change is announced at short notice.
Building your company's Jharkhand calendar
If you run HR for a company with staff in Jharkhand, 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 Jharkhand list for 2026 is at Jharkhand holiday list 2026.

Jharkhand 2027 holiday list (provisional), compiled from Q++Studio, CalendarLabs, Office Holidays and Public Holidays India, read on 10 November 2026. The Jharkhand government has not published its holiday notification for 2027 yet (last checked 10 November 2026). We put this list together from Q++Studio, CalendarLabs, Office Holidays and Public Holidays India, 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.
