- Many festival guides and news outlets list Navratri 2025 as 22 Sept–1 Oct , with a separate line for Dussehra on 2 Oct.
- Some religious calendars phrase it as “Navratri 22 Sept–2 Oct” because they include Dussehra/Vijayadashami within the overall observance.
- In day‑to‑day conversation, people usually say “Navratri ends a day before Dussehra,” so 1 October 2025 is the practical “end of Navratri” for most devotees.
If you are planning fasts or garba events, treat 1 October 2025 as the last night of Navratri, and 2 October 2025 as Dussehra, the wrap‑up celebration.
TL;DR:
- Chaitra Navratri ends on 7 April 2025.
- Sharad Navratri ends on 1 October 2025 , followed by Dussehra on 2 October 2025.
