Panchang
Today is Chaturdashi of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Mula Nakshatra. It is observed as Darsha Amavasya. Rahu Kaal: 9:51 am–11:09 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:07 pm to 12:48 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 9 January 2016, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturdashi, from 08:14 am (prev day) to 07:54 am, followed by Amavasya, from 07:54 am to 07:01 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Mula, from 09:47 am (prev day) to 10:00 am, then Purva Ashadha, from 10:00 am to 09:41 am (next day) on Saturday, 9 January 2016 in Delhi. The Moon is in Sagittarius and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 09:51 am to 11:09 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 Saturday, 9 January 2016, sunrise is at 07:14 am and sunset at 05:41 pm; moonrise is at 06:13 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:07 pm to 12:48 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 08:33 am–09:51 am; Labh 01:46 pm–03:04 pm; Amrit 03:04 pm–04:22 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.
