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 Dudhar Chak every day.
Today (17 June 2026) the tithi in Dudhar Chak is Shukla Paksha Tritiya, until 9:41 PM IST.
Rahu Kaal in Dudhar Chak today is 11:54 AM – 1:37 PM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Dudhar Chak'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 11:27 AM – 12:22 PM IST in Dudhar Chak 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 Dudhar Chak (25.61°N, 84.06°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Dudhar Chak'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 Dudhar Chak, Bihar. On 17 June 2026 the day unfolds under the Shukla Paksha Tritiya tithi with the Moon in Punarvasu nakshatra. Because the timings are tied to Dudhar Chak's own horizon (25.61°N, 84.06°E), they differ from the figures an Indian city would show.
Here is why this page is computed for Dudhar Chak and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 25.61°N, 84.06°E on Asia/Kolkata time, Dudhar Chak's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 17 June 2026 the sun rises over Dudhar Chak at 5:02 AM and sets at 6:46 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 Dudhar Chak's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.
If you live in Dudhar Chak or elsewhere in Bihar, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (11:27 AM – 12:22 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (11:54 AM – 1:37 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Wednesday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Dudhar Chak local time, with no conversion from IST required.
The tithi on 17 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Tritiya. 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 Dudhar Chak local time (Asia/Kolkata).
The Moon is in Punarvasu 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 Dudhar Chak.
Today's yoga is Dhruva. 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 17 June 2026 the sun rises in Dudhar Chak at 5:02 AM and sets at 6:46 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.
