Frequently Asked Questions
What is a panchang?
A panchang is the Hindu almanac that describes each day through five limbs — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the Moon's constellation), yoga, karana and vara (weekday) — and derives from them the day's auspicious and inauspicious periods. This page computes all of them for Balu Bhang every day.
What is the tithi today in Balu Bhang?
Today (18 June 2026) the tithi in Balu Bhang is Shukla Paksha Chaturthi, until 7:01 PM IST.
What time is Rahu Kaal in Balu Bhang today?
Rahu Kaal in Balu Bhang today is 1:34 PM – 3:16 PM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Balu Bhang's own sunrise and sunset, so it differs slightly from city to city even within India.
What is the shubh muhurat in Balu Bhang today?
Abhijit Muhurat, the most dependable auspicious window of the day, is 11:25 AM – 12:19 PM IST in Balu Bhang today. For longer ceremonies, also check the auspicious choghadiya periods listed on this page.
Why is the panchang slightly different for each city?
Sunrise-based periods — Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, choghadiya, Abhijit Muhurat — are fractions of the local day length, and sunrise in Balu Bhang (23.99°N, 84.76°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Balu Bhang's own coordinates.
About Panchang in Balu Bhang
A panchang answers a simple question — what does today favour? — through five limbs: tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara. This is the complete panchang for Balu Bhang, Jharkhand on 18 June 2026, when the Shukla Paksha Chaturthi tithi prevails and the Moon sits in Pushya nakshatra. Every auspicious and inauspicious window shown here is calculated from Balu Bhang's own sky at 23.99°N, 84.76°E, never recycled from a generic IST panchang.
City-specific calculation is not a nicety; it changes the answers. Balu Bhang sits at 23.99°N, 84.76°E in the Asia/Kolkata timezone, so its sunrise, sunset and day length differ from Delhi's or Mumbai's. On 18 June 2026 the sun rises over Balu Bhang at 5:03 AM and sets at 6:40 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and since Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika, choghadiya and Abhijit Muhurat are all carved out of the local interval between sunrise and sunset, each of those windows lands at a different clock time here than in India. Even the prevailing tithi on your calendar date can differ, because tithi boundaries fall at fixed moments worldwide that convert to different local dates across timezones.
The numbers on this page are drik-siddha — derived from observed planetary positions rather than older mean-motion tables. We compute Sun and Moon longitudes with the Swiss Ephemeris and apply the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa used by the Indian government's Rashtriya Panchang. A tithi ends when the Moon gains a further 12° on the Sun, a nakshatra when the Moon crosses into the next 13°20′ segment; those instants are then expressed in Asia/Kolkata time, and all sunrise-based periods are cut from Balu Bhang's actual daylight. Our methodology page explains every step.

Abhijit Muhurat (11:25 AM – 12:19 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (1:34 PM – 3:16 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above break Thursday into favourable and unfavourable spells — all already in Balu Bhang local time.
Today's Tithi in Balu Bhang
The tithi on 18 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Chaturthi. A tithi is one lunar day — the time the Moon takes to move 12° further from the Sun — and it governs which observances, fasts and ceremonies suit the day. End times on this page are converted to Balu Bhang local time (Asia/Kolkata).
Today's Nakshatra in Balu Bhang
The Moon is in Pushya nakshatra. The zodiac is divided into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′ each; the one the Moon occupies colours the day's character and matters for naming ceremonies, travel decisions and muhurat selection in Balu Bhang.
Today's Yoga in Balu Bhang
Today's yoga is Vyaghata. Yoga is computed from the combined longitudes of the Sun and Moon and cycles through 27 names; some yogas are read as favourable for new undertakings while others counsel routine work.
Sunrise and Sunset in Balu Bhang
On 18 June 2026 the sun rises in Balu Bhang at 5:03 AM and sets at 6:40 PM. Sunrise is the hinge of the whole panchang: the Hindu day begins at local sunrise, and Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika and the choghadiya sequence are all equal divisions of the daylight between these two moments.
