Panchang
Today is Tritiya of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Pushya Nakshatra. It is observed as Sankashti Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 8:29 am–9:47 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:01 pm to 12:43 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Monday, 28 December 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Tritiya, from 02:42 pm (prev day) to 02:43 pm, followed by Chaturthi, from 02:43 pm to 03:29 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Pushya, from 11:19 am (prev day) to 11:49 am, then Ashlesha, from 11:49 am to 01:02 pm (next day) on Monday, 28 December 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Cancer and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Monday) runs from 08:29 am to 09:47 am. 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 Monday, 28 December 2015, sunrise is at 07:12 am and sunset at 05:32 pm; moonrise is at 08:32 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:01 pm to 12:43 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 07:12 am–08:29 am; Shubh 09:47 am–11:04 am; Labh 02:57 pm–04:15 pm; Amrit 04:15 pm–05:32 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.
