Today's Panchang for Ahmedabad

A Panchang printed for Delhi or Ujjain is not right for Ahmedabad: sunrise is at a different time, so Rahu Kaal and every daytime Muhurat shift too. Below is today's Panchang calculated from Ahmedabad's own sunrise and time zone.

Panchang for Ahmedabad: what is different here

Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga and Karana are shown as they stand at sunrise in Ahmedabad, the traditional rule for the day's Panchang. Times use India Standard Time (UTC+5:30), the same as India (IST). Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika are each one eighth of the time from sunrise to sunset, so their length changes through the seasons.

Upcoming vrat and festival dates in Ahmedabad

Start and end times are in Ahmedabad time. A vrat is usually kept on the day the Tithi is running at sunrise; your family or temple tradition may differ.

Ahmedabad by the numbers

The length of the day decides the length of Rahu Kaal. In Ahmedabad the shortest day has about 10 h 43 min of daylight and the longest about 13 h 33 min (today: 11 h 17 min), which gives a Rahu Kaal of 80 to 102 minutes.

Sunrise in Ahmedabad today is 6:44 AM, 3 minutes later on the clock than in Surat (208 km away). Even nearby cities need their own Panchang.

Time in Ahmedabad and why it matters

Ahmedabad is on India Standard Time (UTC+5:30), the same as India (IST).

Ahmedabad does not use daylight saving time, so the clock stays the same all year. Enter birth times exactly as written on the birth certificate.

Vedic traditions in Ahmedabad

Ahmedabad is one of the last big Indian cities to see sunrise, so its Rahu Kaal and Choghadiya windows run later than in eastern India. Navratri garba, Uttarayan kite flying on Makar Sankranti and Diwali business new year (Bestu Varas) all follow the Vedic calendar, and traders often choose a Muhurat for opening new account books.

Questions from Ahmedabad

Which ayanamsa does this Panchang use?

The Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa, the standard used by the Indian government's Rashtriya Panchang and most printed Panchangs.

What is the Rahu Kaal time in Ahmedabad today?

Today in Ahmedabad Rahu Kaal is 4:37 PM – 6:01 PM. It is worked out from Ahmedabad's own sunrise and sunset, so it is different from the time in an Indian calendar.

Why is the Tithi in Ahmedabad sometimes different from an Indian calendar?

A Tithi begins at the same moment everywhere, but the local clock and sunrise differ. The day's Tithi is the one running at local sunrise, so Ahmedabad can have a different Tithi on a given date than Delhi.
