Formula & methodology

Formula: Abhijit Muhurat = solar noon ± 1/30 of day length (the 8th of 15 daytime muhurtas)

  1. Enter the date and your city’s coordinates.
  2. The calculator computes sunrise, sunset and solar noon, then derives Abhijit Muhurat (the 48-minute eighth muhurta around noon).
  3. The day’s tithi and nakshatra are computed for quality context.
  4. Rahu Kaal is shown so your chosen window avoids it.

Worked example — Delhi, Wednesday 10 Jun 2026: Abhijit runs 11:57 – 12:45, but Rahu Kaal opens 12:21; the clean auspicious slice is 11:57–12:21. The tithi (Krishna Dashami) and star (Uttara Bhadrapada) are mild-favourable for general work.

Frequently asked questions

What is a muhurat?
A muhurta is a 48-minute unit — 1/30 of a day — and “shubh muhurat” means an auspicious one chosen for starting something. Electional astrology (muhurta shastra) weighs the tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana, weekday and the clock windows like Abhijit and Rahu Kaal.
What is Abhijit Muhurat and why is it special?
The 8th of the 15 daytime muhurtas — about 24 minutes either side of local solar noon. Tradition treats it as self-purifying: a window that overrides many minor flaws of the day, making it the default choice when a detailed election isn’t possible. Some lineages skip it on Wednesdays.
Is one “good time” enough for a major ceremony?
For weddings, griha pravesh or upanayana, no — those use full panchang elections (tithi-nakshatra-lagna combinations specific to the rite). Abhijit plus a clear Rahu Kaal is the everyday standard for openings, journeys, purchases and first steps.
Why do muhurat times change with the city?
Everything keys off local sunrise, noon and sunset: Abhijit follows solar noon (not clock noon — they differ by the equation of time and your longitude), and Rahu Kaal follows the day’s eighth-divisions. The same date gives different windows in Delhi and Dubai.
What should I avoid when picking a time?
Rahu Kaal first; then Yamaganda and Gulika if you observe them; Vishti (Bhadra) karana for ceremonies; and for big rites, Rikta tithis (4/9/14) and harsh nakshatras. The panchang tools on this site list each of these for any date.
