Daily Panchang — Frequently Asked Questions
Panchang is the traditional Hindu calendar that lists the five key elements of each day — Tithi (lunar day), Vaar (weekday), Nakshatra (constellation), Yoga, and Karana. It is used to find auspicious timings (muhurat) for poojas, travel, and important events.
Rahu Kaal is a roughly 90-minute period each day considered inauspicious for starting new or important work. Its exact timing changes daily and by location, based on sunrise and sunset. You can see today's Rahu Kaal in the panchang table above for your selected city.
Tithi is the lunar day, Nakshatra is the moon's constellation, Yoga is a specific sun–moon combination, and Karana is half of a Tithi. Together they determine the quality of the day and which activities are favourable.
Yes. PrayFullit's daily panchang is completely free and calculated for your chosen city, so sunrise, sunset, and muhurat timings are accurate for your location.
Check the shubh muhurat and choghadiya timings in the panchang, and avoid inauspicious periods like Rahu Kaal. For important ceremonies you can also book a verified pandit on PrayFullit for personalised muhurat guidance.
