Balra Ismail Panchang · 20 June 2026

About Panchang in Balra Ismail

Hindus have timed worship, travel and new beginnings with the panchang for centuries. It reads each day through five limbs — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara — and this page presents all five for Balra Ismail, Bihar on 20 June 2026. Today's reckoning: Shukla Paksha Shashthi tithi, Moon in Magha nakshatra. Every timing shown is calculated for Balra Ismail's own coordinates instead of being reused from an Indian city's panchang.

Why does the city matter so much? Because nearly everything in a panchang is anchored to local sunrise. Balra Ismail lies at 25.96°N, 85.40°E and keeps Asia/Kolkata time, so its days begin and end at different moments than any Indian city's. On 20 June 2026 the sun rises over Balra Ismail at 4:57 AM and sets at 6:43 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika, the eight choghadiya periods and Abhijit Muhurat are all fractions of that local daylight. Reading an India-time panchang in Balra Ismail would put every one of those windows at the wrong local hour — and across a timezone gap, even the tithi in force on a given date can change.

A word on accuracy: every figure here is computed, not transcribed. Sun and Moon longitudes come from the Swiss Ephemeris — the precision engine behind professional jyotish software — referenced to the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa that India's Rashtriya Panchang adopts. The Moon gaining 12° on the Sun marks each new tithi; crossing the next 13°20′ arc marks each new nakshatra. We convert those universal moments to Asia/Kolkata time and then carve every sunrise-based window from Balra Ismail's own daylight. The full method is on our methodology page.

For families in Balra Ismail and across Bihar, this page turns the panchang into practical decisions for Saturday, 20 June 2026: which hour suits a puja, a griha pravesh, a mundan, a new vehicle or setting out on a trip. Abhijit Muhurat (11:22 AM – 12:17 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (8:23 AM – 10:06 AM) is best avoided for new beginnings. When a ceremony needs a longer stretch, pick a favourable choghadiya from the tables above — every entry is in Balra Ismail local time, so no IST arithmetic is needed.
