A full Moon rises as the Sun sets and sets as it rises, which is the check anyone can make without an almanac: on this date the Moon rises at 7:05 PM against a sunset of 7:20 PM, and sets at 4:21 AM against a sunrise of 5:25 AM. The tithi ends at 19 Jun, 6:14 AM — the instant the Moon is exactly 180° from the Sun.
This tithi covers two sunrises, so there are two valid dates
The Purnima tithi runs from 18 Jun, 4:35 AM to 19 Jun, 6:14 AM — long enough that the Sun rises inside it twice. Smarta households keep the fast on 18 June 2027; vaishnavas and most published calendars keep it on 19 June 2027, because an Ekadashi that begins in the last four ghatis before sunrise is touched by Dashami. We show the vaishnava date above.
