Reunion, Saint Denis | 2026 Indian Calendar | Kannan Panchangam

 

Why do Hindu festival dates differ between India and Reunion?

Many Indians living in Saint Denis often wonder why festival dates here don’t always match those in India. The reason lies in time zones, sunrise and sunset differences, and local tithi and nakchatra transitions. Each country experiences sunrise and sunset at different times, which affects the calculation of tithi, nakshatra, and planetary positions that determine auspicious moments.

If one follows timings from an Indian Panchangam while living in Reunion, the actual period of Rahu Kalam, Yamakandam, and Nalla Neram may not align correctly with Saint Denis’s day length. This could lead to performing rituals during inauspicious hours. Hence, a locally calculated Panchangam is essential for accuracy.

 

Why Kannan Panchangam is Different?

The Kannan Panchangam 2026 Calendar for Saint Denis is created with precise calculations based on Saint Denis’s sunrise, sunset, and local time zone, summer time changes . Every festival date, vratham time, muhurtham, and planetary position is customized for Saint Denis’s location.

Because of time differences, even the starting and ending dates of Hindu months can change, which may shift the festival dates.

This ensures that devotees in Reunion perform rituals, vrathams, and observances at the correct local time, preserving the sanctity and intention behind each tradition.

 

With the Blessings of Kanchi Sankarachariayar.

The global calendar initiative was started under the blessings and guidance of Sri Kanchi Sankarachariyar Vijayendra Saraswathi Swamigal.
He graciously entrusted Kannan Panchangam to prepare the official calendars of the Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam for major cities across the world, so that Indians living abroad can observe traditional timings accurately according to their region.

This Saint Denis edition forms part of that divine effort — the official 2026 calendar of the Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam, prepared on behalf of the Sankaramatam.
