Panchang for Colombo — 28 May 2027

Krishna Saptami tithi, Dhanishtha nakshatra · Friday · (6.9271°, 79.8612°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Partial (2/4)Vikram Samvat 2084 (Raudri)Shaka Samvat 1949Vrishabha (Vaishakha)

A pañcāṅga is the day's five limbs — tithi, vāra, nakṣatra, yoga and karaṇa. All five come from the real positions of the Sun and Moon and change through the day, so they are reckoned from Colombo (6.9271°, 79.8612°)'s own sunrise — 05:53 AM here today rather than from a national average. Below are today's five with the time each ends, and then the day's auspicious and inauspicious windows.
