Panchang for Guwahati — 21 August 2026

Shukla Navami tithi, Anuradha nakshatra · Friday · Assam (26.1445°, 91.7362°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Shuddha (Pure)Vikram Samvat 2083 (Siddharthi)Shaka Samvat 1948Simha (Shravana)

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 Guwahati (26.1445°, 91.7362°)'s own sunrise — 04:58 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.
