Panchang for Patna — 16 March 2027

Shukla Ashtami tithi, Mrigashira nakshatra · Tuesday · Bihar (25.6093°, 85.1376°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Shuddha (Pure)Vikram Samvat 2084 (Raudri)Shaka Samvat 1949Meena (Phalguna)

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 Patna (25.6093°, 85.1376°)'s own sunrise — 05:58 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.
