Panchang for Dwarka — 18 October 2026

Shukla Saptami tithi, Purva Ashadha nakshatra · Sunday · Gujarat (22.2442°, 68.9685°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Shuddha (Pure)Vikram Samvat 2083 (Siddharthi)Shaka Samvat 1948Tula (Ashvina)

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 Dwarka (22.2442°, 68.9685°)'s own sunrise — 06:51 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.
