Andhra Pradesh's 2027 Holiday Calendar
Andhra Pradesh's 2027 calendar runs on 22 notified holidays in total, 17 central gazetted days observed nationwide and 5 specific to the state.
Andhra Pradesh's Own Additions
The holidays specific to Andhra Pradesh are Bhogi, Makar Sankranti, Kanuma, Ugadi, Dr. Ambedkar Jayanti.
Andhra Pradesh's 2027 calendar combines the same 17 central gazetted holidays most of the country observes, Republic Day, Independence Day and Gandhi Jayanti among them, with 5 days specific to the state. The Sankranti block, Bhogi, Sankranti and Kanuma, is the core of that state-specific cluster. The solar transit that sets Sankranti falls at 9:14 PM on 14 January 2027, late enough in the day that the holiday itself is observed on 15 January. These dates follow the standard panchang and stay provisional until Andhra Pradesh's General Administration Department issues its 2027 holiday G.O., typically sometime in November or December 2026.

FAQs on Andhra Pradesh Holidays in 2027
Yes, several. The standout is the Sankranti cluster: Bhogi on Thursday, 14 January, Makar Sankranti on Friday, 15 January, and Kanuma on Saturday, 16 January run three days straight into the usual Sunday off, a four-day break for most employers. Good Friday (Friday, 26 March) and Diwali (Friday, 29 October) each add a day onto the weekend that follows. Mahavir Jayanti (Monday, 19 April) and Bakrid (Monday, 17 May) do the same from the other side, extending the Saturday-to-Sunday weekend that comes before them.
Yes. Ugadi, the Telugu New Year, falls on Wednesday, 7 April 2027, and is one of Andhra Pradesh's five state-specific holidays alongside Bhogi, Makar Sankranti, Kanuma and Dr. Ambedkar Jayanti.
