Building your company's Uttar Pradesh calendar
If you run HR for a company with staff in Uttar Pradesh, 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 Uttar Pradesh list for 2026 is at Uttar Pradesh holiday list 2026.
