Panchang for Shimla — 12 December 2025

Krishna Ashtami tithi, Uttara Phalguni nakshatra · Friday · Himachal Pradesh (31.1048°, 77.1734°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Shuddha (Pure)Vikram Samvat 2082 (Kalayukti)Shaka Samvat 1947Vrischika (Kartika)

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 Shimla (31.1048°, 77.1734°)'s own sunrise — 07:10 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.
