Panchang
Today is Dwadashi of Krishna Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Shatabhisha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 5:08 pm–6:43 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:57 am to 12:48 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 8 April 2040, the tithi in Delhi is Dwadashi, from 12:28 am to 10:44 pm, followed by Trayodashi, from 10:44 pm to 09:15 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Shatabhisha, from 01:21 am to 12:21 am (next day), then Purva Bhadrapada, from 12:21 am (next day) to 11:37 pm (next day) on Sunday, 8 April 2040 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Sunday) runs from 05:08 pm to 06:43 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 Sunday, 8 April 2040, sunrise is at 06:02 am and sunset at 06:43 pm; moonrise is at 04:15 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:57 am to 12:48 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 09:12 am–10:48 am; Amrit 10:48 am–12:23 pm; Shubh 01:58 pm–03:33 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.
