The Sikh festival celebrated on the full moon day of Kartik month, according to the Hindu calendar, is Guru Nanak Jayanti, also known as Gurpurab.
It is a Gazetted holiday in India. The controversial Bhai Bala Janamsakhi claims Guru Nanak was born on the Full Moon (Pooranmashi) of the Indian Lunar Month Kartik.
