Panchang
Today is Tritiya of Shukla Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Krittika Nakshatra. It is observed as Akshaya Tritiya. Rahu Kaal: 3:36 pm–5:14 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:53 am to 12:45 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 24 April 2012, the tithi in Delhi is Tritiya, from 06:01 pm (prev day) to 08:37 pm, followed by Chaturthi, from 08:37 pm to 11:00 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Krittika, from 06:47 am to 06:47 am, then Rohini, from 06:47 am to 09:49 am (next day) on Tuesday, 24 April 2012 in Delhi. The Moon is in Taurus and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:36 pm to 05:14 pm. It is a period of about 90 minutes that is traditionally avoided for starting new ventures; its timing depends on the weekday and on local sunrise and sunset, so it differs from city to city.
In Delhi on Tuesday, 24 April 2012, sunrise is at 05:46 am and sunset at 06:52 pm; moonrise is at 07:32 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:53 am to 12:45 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:41 am–12:19 pm; Amrit 12:19 pm–01:57 pm; Shubh 03:36 pm–05:14 pm. Choghadiya divides the day and the night into eight parts each; Amrit, Shubh and Labh are the auspicious ones.
The Panchang is computed for the exact coordinates of Delhi (28.61°N, 77.21°E) from the real positions of the Sun and Moon. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are shown with their start and end times, in Delhi's local time.
“Panchang” means “five limbs”: tithi (lunar day), vaar (weekday), nakshatra (the lunar mansion the Moon occupies), yoga (a Sun–Moon angular combination) and karana (half of a tithi). Together with Rahu Kaal, Abhijit Muhurat and choghadiya, they are used to choose favourable times for prayers, travel and new beginnings.
