Panchang
Today is Ashtami of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Hasta Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 1:48 pm–3:07 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:08 pm to 12:50 pm. The answers below are calculated for Jaipur, Rajasthan and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 31 December 2026, the tithi in Jaipur is Ashtami, from 12:37 pm (prev day) to 12:33 pm, followed by Navami, from 12:33 pm to 01:11 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Hasta, from 03:37 pm (prev day) to 04:13 pm, then Chitra, from 04:13 pm to 05:29 pm (next day) on Thursday, 31 December 2026 in Jaipur. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Jaipur today (Thursday) runs from 01:48 pm to 03:07 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 Jaipur on Thursday, 31 December 2026, sunrise is at 07:15 am and sunset at 05:44 pm; moonrise is at 12:32 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Jaipur today is from 12:08 pm to 12:50 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:15 am–08:33 am; Labh 12:29 pm–01:48 pm; Amrit 01:48 pm–03:07 pm; Shubh 04:25 pm–05:44 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 Jaipur (26.91°N, 75.79°E) from the real positions of the Sun and Moon. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are shown with their start and end times, in Jaipur'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.
