Make varshi tap calender for year 2026 2027 for gujarat location
For an exact Varshi Tap calendar (day‑by‑day) for 2026–2027 in Gujarat, you will need a local Jain panchang. I’ll explain why, and how you can create it correctly.
1. Why I cannot give an exact ready‑made calendar
A proper Varshi Tap calendar depends on:
- Tithi & lunar month (not just English dates)
- Exact sunrise time at your city (Ahmedabad/Surat/Rajkot, etc.)
- Local Jain maryādā (small rules differ from sangh to sangh)
Those details come from a Gujarati Jain panchang (printed or app), which I cannot reliably read and calculate for each city and each day here. If I “guess” the dates, it can be wrong – and for a big tap like Varshi Tap, that is not acceptable.
2. Basic idea of Varshi Tap (for clarity)

3. How to make a correct Varshi Tap calendar for 2026–2027 (Gujarat)
Use this method with your local Jain panchang (or Jain calendar app for Gujarat):
- Fix your end date with Guru‑guidance
- Most commonly: decide to finish on Akshaya Tritiya of the year (e.g., Akshaya Tritiya in 2027) as per your Gujarati Jain panchang for Gujarat. - Ask your local sadhu/sādhvī or Jain guru which Akshaya Tritiya and which maryādā you should follow.
- Count backwards ~13 lunar months + 13 days
- From that Akshaya Tritiya, count backwards through the panchang about 1 year + 13 days (tithi‑wise). - That becomes your start date (Pahlo Upvās).
- Mark alternate days
- From that start date, mark every alternate sunrise as: - Upvās day (fast) - Next sunrise = eating day - Next = Upvās, and so on. - Do this continuously till the Akshaya Tritiya parnā day.
- Adjust for local sunrise & rules
- Check sunrise time for your exact city in Gujarat (Ahmedabad / Surat / Vadodara etc.). - Upvās and parnā are usually counted sunrise‑to‑sunrise as per local time. - Follow your sangh’s rule (for example: - Whether water is allowed after sunset, - Whether eating day is ekāsan or beshan, - Any special rules on Paryushan, Mahavir Jayanti, etc.)
- Get it checked once
- After you or a family member prepare the rough calendar: - Show it to your local Jain monk/nun or panchang‑knowledgeable person in your Upāshray/Derāsar. - Ask them to confirm: “Varshi Tap ni tithi ane parnā barābar chhe ke nai?” - Once approved, you can neatly write/print your Varshi Tap 2026–2027 calendar and keep it with your pachchakkhān.
