Panchang
Today is Amavasya of Krishna Paksha in Margashirsha month, with the Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra. It is observed as Margashirsha Amavasya, Darsha Amavasya and Vrishchika Sankranti. Rahu Kaal: 1:26 pm–2:46 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:44 am to 12:27 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 16 November 2028, the tithi in Delhi is Amavasya, from 09:35 pm (prev day) to 06:48 pm, followed by Pratipada, from 06:48 pm to 04:26 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Kartika (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Vishakha, from 01:34 am to 11:35 pm, then Anuradha, from 11:35 pm to 10:02 pm (next day) on Thursday, 16 November 2028 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Libra.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 01:26 pm to 02:46 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 Thursday, 16 November 2028, sunrise is at 06:44 am and sunset at 05:27 pm; moonrise is at 06:21 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:44 am to 12:27 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:44 am–08:04 am; Labh 12:05 pm–01:26 pm; Amrit 01:26 pm–02:46 pm; Shubh 04:06 pm–05:27 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.
