Frequently asked questions about the Punjabi Jantri 2028
How many festivals and vrats does the Punjabi Jantri list in 2028?
The Punjabi Jantri lists 263 dates in 2028, of which 209 are vrats. The first is Masik Durgashtami on Wednesday, 5 January 2028, and the last is Pausha Purnima Vrat on Sunday, 31 December 2028.
What are the main festival dates in the Punjabi Jantri for 2028?
The first major observances of 2028 are:
- Bhogi / Lohri - Friday, 14 January 2028
- Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Saturday, 15 January 2028
- Vasant Panchami - Monday, 31 January 2028
- Bhishma Ashtami - Thursday, 3 February 2028
- Maha Shivaratri - Wednesday, 23 February 2028
- Holika Dahan - Friday, 10 March 2028
Which month of 2028 has the most observances in the Punjabi Jantri?
October 2028 is the fullest month with 27 dates, including Sharad Purnima, Anvadhan, Ashwina Purnima, Ashwina Purnima Vrat, Meerabai Jayanti, Valmiki Jayanti, Ishti, Karva Chauth.
Which traditional year does 2028 correspond to in the Punjabi Jantri?
The Gregorian year 2028 spans Bikrami Samvat 2084 – 2085. The traditional year does not begin on 1 January, so one Gregorian year usually covers the end of one era year and the start of the next.
Will there be an Adhik Maas in 2028?
No. 2028 has twelve lunar months with no Adhik Maas, so its festival dates fall in their usual Gregorian window rather than being pushed later by an intercalary month.
Will there be any eclipses in 2028?
2028 has 5 eclipses:
- 12 January 2028 - Partial lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
- 26 January 2028 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 6 July 2028 - Partial lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal will be observed
- 22 July 2028 - Total solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal will be observed
- 31 December 2028 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal will be observed
Sutak Kaal is observed only for an eclipse actually visible where you are, so 3 of these will be kept in India.
Will Guru or Shani change sign in 2028?
Yes - 4 sign changes among the slow grahas in 2028:
- Shani (Saturn) enters Mesha on 23 February 2028
- Guru (Jupiter) enters Simha on 28 February 2028, moving retrograde
- Guru (Jupiter) enters Kanya on 24 July 2028
- Guru (Jupiter) enters Tula on 26 December 2028
Jupiter takes about a year to cross one sign and Saturn about two and a half, so these transits colour the whole year rather than a single week.
How do I see the tithi and nakshatra for a specific date in 2028?
Use the month grid above: pick a month from the selector, then tap any day to open its full panchang - tithi with start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Set your city in the box at the top first, because these timings are sunrise-based and shift with location. The Punjabi Jantri opens on the current month.

The Punjabi Jantri (Bikrami reckoning, with the Nanakshahi year alongside). Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and festivals, with the Punjabi solar month beginning on its Sangrand (Sankranti) day.
Each day lists its tithi and paksha, the nakshatra, the weekday (vaar) and any festivals or vrats. Tap any day to see the full panchang for that date - tithi start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Use the month and year selectors to browse any year in the archive or plan ahead into the coming years.
This calendar names the tithi and festivals for each day. For sunrise, Rahu Kalam and muhurat windows on a chosen date, open the Panchang. Other regional calendars are on the Calendars index. Fast stories live under Vrat Katha.
