Rama Navami 2025 in India

Rama Navami (Ram Navami, Ramanavami, Sri Rama Navami) is a Hindu festival that celebrates the birth of Rama on the ninth day of the Hindu month of Caitra, which usually falls in March or April. Rama is the first son of King Dasaratha and Queen Kausalya of Ayodhya and is believed to be the seventh incarnation of the Hindu god Vishnu.

Is Rama Navami a Public Holiday?

Rama Navami is an optional holiday. Employment and holiday laws in India allow employees to choose a limited number of holidays from a list of optional holidays. Some employees may choose to take the day off on this day, however, most offices and businesses remain open.

Rama Navami celebrates the birth of Rama, the hero of the great religious epic poem, the Ramayana.
