When it falls

Mahalaya Amavasya is on Thu 30 September 2027

Mahalaya Amavasya is observed on Bhadrapada Krishna Amavasya. A tithi is a lunar day, not a fixed date in the Gregorian year, so the observance moves — this one is resolved for Bengaluru by the same panchang engine the calendar and the app read, on every request, rather than written down once.
