Formula & methodology

Formula: Panchang = vara + tithi + nakshatra + yoga + karana, all evaluated at local sunrise

The Daily Panchang Calculator is built on a well-established calculation method. It uses the formula Panchang = vara + tithi + nakshatra + yoga + karana, all evaluated at local sunrise to turn your inputs into a reliable result. A Daily Panchang Calculator helps calculate daily panchang calculator using Vedic astrology, panchang, calendar, muhurat, Vastu or naming inputs. It gives an instant browser-based result with a transparent method and The steps are shown on the page so you can follow the reasoning from input to output.

  1. Choose the date and enter latitude, longitude and UTC offset.
  2. The calculator computes Sun and Moon longitudes at local sunrise (Meeus, Lahiri ayanamsa).
  3. Tithi comes from Moon−Sun elongation, nakshatra from the sidereal Moon, yoga from Sun+Moon, karana from half-tithis.
  4. Sunrise/sunset (NOAA) also yield Rahu Kaal, Gulika and Yamaganda for the day.

Worked example — Delhi, Wednesday 10 Jun 2026: sunrise 05:23, sunset 19:18; tithi Krishna Dashami, nakshatra Uttara Bhadrapada (pada 4), yoga Sukarma, karana Vishti; Rahu Kaal 12:21–14:05, Gulika 10:36–12:21, Yamaganda 07:07–08:52.

Frequently asked questions

What is a panchang?
Panchang literally means “five limbs”: the weekday (vara), lunar day (tithi), Moon’s star (nakshatra), Sun–Moon combination (yoga) and half-tithi (karana). Together they describe the astrological quality of a day and drive every festival, vrat and muhurat decision.
Why does a panchang depend on the city?
All five limbs are evaluated at local sunrise, and Rahu Kaal/Gulika windows are fractions of the local day length. Different longitude and latitude mean different sunrise times — so the same date can carry a different tithi label in, say, Delhi and New York.
What is the difference between Drik and traditional panchangs?
Drik (“observational”) panchangs compute real astronomical positions — what this tool does. Older Vakya/Surya-Siddhanta panchangs use ancient approximation verses and can drift by hours on tithi boundaries. Most modern Indian calendars, including this one, follow the Drik method with Lahiri ayanamsa.
What should I check before fixing an event date?
Typically: an auspicious tithi (avoid Rikta tithis 4/9/14 for beginnings), a favourable nakshatra, a good yoga, no Vishti (Bhadra) karana, and a clock window clear of Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika. The muhurat tools on this site combine these checks for specific ceremonies.
Why does my panchang app show a slightly different time?
Apps may use a different ayanamsa, a different sunrise convention (disc center vs upper limb, refraction), or your phone’s location instead of the city you intend. Differences of a few minutes are normal; the tithi/nakshatra only flip if a boundary falls inside that gap.
What are the five parts of a panchang?
Vara (weekday), tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (lunar mansion), yoga (luni-solar combination), and karana (half-tithi) — all evaluated at local sunrise. Together they describe the day's astrological character in the traditional system. The tool computes each from astronomical positions and lists their start and end times.
Why must I give a location for a panchang?
Because sunrise — the reference moment for the whole panchang — depends on latitude and longitude, and tithi/nakshatra boundaries are instants in time that fall on different civil days in different places. A panchang computed for Chennai can differ from one for London on the same date. The tool uses your coordinates so the sunrise evaluation is local.
What is the difference between tithi and a calendar date?
A tithi is a lunar day — the time the Moon gains 12° on the Sun — lasting roughly 19 to 26 hours, so it rarely matches a civil day one-to-one. That is why festivals defined by tithi shift against the Gregorian calendar. The panchang lists each tithi with its exact start and end times.
Why does my temple's panchang sometimes differ by a day?
Usually because of convention differences: which ayanamsa (Lahiri vs Raman vs Krishnamurti), whether sunrise or moonrise anchors the day, and how edge cases near boundaries are resolved. The astronomical positions underneath agree to arcminutes; the assigned labels can still differ. The tool states its conventions so you can compare apples to apples.
