About Hindu Panchang

Panchang (Panchangam) is the ancient Hindu Vedic calendar system that tracks five fundamental elements of cosmic time: Tithi (lunar day), Nakshatra (lunar mansion), Yoga (luni-solar combination), Karana (half-tithi), and Vara (weekday). The word derives from Sanskrit — "pancha" (five) + "anga" (limb).

This daily Panchang is computed using precise Vedic calculations following the traditional Indian astronomical standard (the official standard of the Government of India) for professional-grade accuracy. Sunrise, sunset, Rahu Kaal, and Muhurat times are calculated dynamically based on your location's coordinates.
