Diwali 2027 in Doha
Diwali (Deepavali, Lakshmi Puja) 2027 in Doha (Qatar) is on Thursday 28 October 2027; in India it is on Friday 29 October 2027, because Doha's local day reaches the deciding tithi on a different calendar date. The Deepavali tithi (Bahula Amavasya) runs from 28 October 2027 6:18 PM to 29 October 2027 4:36 PM Doha time. The date is fixed by the tithi at pradosha (the first fifth of the night after sunset), which in Doha on that day is 4:56 PM – 7:28 PM. Check of the rule: 27 October 2027: pradosha 4:56 PM–7:29 PM, tithi covers 0%; 28 October 2027: pradosha 4:56 PM–7:28 PM, tithi covers 46%; 29 October 2027: pradosha 4:55 PM–7:28 PM, tithi covers 0%.
