Panchang for Shirdi — 16 April 2026

Krishna Chaturdashi tithi, Uttara Bhadrapada nakshatra · Thursday · Maharashtra (19.7668°, 74.4773°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Partial (3/4)Vikram Samvat 2083 (Siddharthi)Shaka Samvat 1948Mesha (Chaitra)

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 Shirdi (19.7668°, 74.4773°)'s own sunrise — 06:14 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.
