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 Dit-dak every day.
Today (15 June 2026) the tithi in Dit-dak is Krishna Paksha Amavasya, until 8:26 AM IST.
Rahu Kaal in Dit-dak today is 6:33 AM – 8:07 AM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Dit-dak'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 10:51 AM – 11:41 AM IST in Dit-dak 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 Dit-dak (7.32°N, 93.63°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Dit-dak's own coordinates.
Think of the panchang as the Hindu day's instruction sheet: five limbs — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the Moon's mansion), yoga, karana and vara — that tell you what each day favours. For Dit-dak, Andaman and Nicobar Islands on 15 June 2026 the sheet reads Krishna Paksha Amavasya tithi with the Moon in Mrigashira nakshatra. Every window further down is computed for Dit-dak's location (7.32°N, 93.63°E) rather than copied from a standard Indian-city table.
Here is why this page is computed for Dit-dak and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 7.32°N, 93.63°E on Asia/Kolkata time, Dit-dak's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 15 June 2026 the sun rises over Dit-dak at 4:59 AM and sets at 5:32 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and the inauspicious periods — Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika — along with the choghadiya sequence and Abhijit Muhurat are all slices of that local daylight, so each sits at a different clock time than it would in India. A large timezone offset can even move the tithi onto a different calendar date.
How these timings are calculated: planetary longitudes come from the Swiss Ephemeris, the same high-precision library used by professional astrology software, with the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa — the sidereal reference adopted by India's official Rashtriya Panchang. Tithi changes when the Moon moves 12° ahead of the Sun; nakshatra changes as the Moon crosses each 13°20′ arc of the zodiac. These transition moments are universal, and we convert each one into Asia/Kolkata local time, then derive sunrise-dependent windows from Dit-dak's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.
If you live in Dit-dak or elsewhere in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (10:51 AM – 11:41 AM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (6:33 AM – 8:07 AM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Monday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Dit-dak local time, with no conversion from IST required.
The tithi on 15 June 2026 is Krishna Paksha Amavasya. 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 Dit-dak local time (Asia/Kolkata).
The Moon is in Mrigashira 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 Dit-dak.
Today's yoga is Shula. 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 15 June 2026 the sun rises in Dit-dak at 4:59 AM and sets at 5:32 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.
