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 Chak-i-Nagarad every day.
Today (19 June 2026) the tithi in Chak-i-Nagarad is Shukla Paksha Panchami, until 5:02 PM IST.
Rahu Kaal in Chak-i-Nagarad today is 10:43 AM – 12:30 PM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Chak-i-Nagarad's own sunrise and sunset, so it differs slightly from city to city even within India.
Abhijit Muhurat, the most dependable auspicious window of the day, is 12:02 PM – 12:59 PM IST in Chak-i-Nagarad today. For longer ceremonies, also check the auspicious choghadiya periods listed on this page.
Sunrise-based periods — Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, choghadiya, Abhijit Muhurat — are fractions of the local day length, and sunrise in Chak-i-Nagarad (33.58°N, 75.14°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Chak-i-Nagarad's own coordinates.
The five limbs of the panchang — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara — have guided Hindu timekeeping for millennia, and this page works all five out specifically for Chak-i-Nagarad, Jammu and Kashmir. On 19 June 2026 the day unfolds under the Shukla Paksha Panchami tithi with the Moon in Ashlesha nakshatra. Because the timings are tied to Chak-i-Nagarad's own horizon (33.58°N, 75.14°E), they differ from the figures an Indian city would show.
Why does the city matter so much? Because nearly everything in a panchang is anchored to local sunrise. Chak-i-Nagarad lies at 33.58°N, 75.14°E and keeps Asia/Kolkata time, so its days begin and end at different moments than any Indian city's. On 19 June 2026 the sun rises over Chak-i-Nagarad at 5:19 AM and sets at 7:42 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 Chak-i-Nagarad 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 Chak-i-Nagarad's own daylight. The full method is on our methodology page.
For families in Chak-i-Nagarad and across Jammu and Kashmir, this page turns the panchang into practical decisions for Friday, 19 June 2026: which hour suits a puja, a griha pravesh, a mundan, a new vehicle or setting out on a trip. Abhijit Muhurat (12:02 PM – 12:59 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (10:43 AM – 12:30 PM) 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 Chak-i-Nagarad local time, so no IST arithmetic is needed.
The tithi on 19 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Panchami. 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 Chak-i-Nagarad local time (Asia/Kolkata).
The Moon is in Ashlesha 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 Chak-i-Nagarad.
Today's yoga is Harshana. 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.
On 19 June 2026 the sun rises in Chak-i-Nagarad at 5:19 AM and sets at 7:42 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.
