Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Krishna Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Swati Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 3:30 pm–5:00 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:05 pm to 12:53 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 18 March 2025, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 07:34 pm (prev day) to 10:10 pm, followed by Panchami, from 10:10 pm to 12:38 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Swati, from 02:47 pm (prev day) to 05:51 pm, then Vishakha, from 05:51 pm to 08:50 pm (next day) on Tuesday, 18 March 2025 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:30 pm to 05:00 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, 18 March 2025, sunrise is at 06:27 am and sunset at 06:31 pm; moonrise is at 10:13 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:05 pm to 12:53 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:58 am–12:29 pm; Amrit 12:29 pm–01:59 pm; Shubh 03:30 pm–05:00 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.
