Panchang for Nagpur — 21 January 2026

Shukla Tritiya tithi, Dhanishtha nakshatra · Wednesday · Maharashtra (21.1458°, 79.0882°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Shuddha (Pure)Vikram Samvat 2083 (Siddharthi)Shaka Samvat 1948Makara (Pausha)

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 Nagpur (21.1458°, 79.0882°)'s own sunrise — 06:53 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.
