Panchang for Thiruvananthapuram — 20 April 2027

Shukla Purnima tithi, Chitra nakshatra · Tuesday · Kerala (8.5241°, 76.9366°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Partial (3/4)Vikram Samvat 2084 (Raudri)Shaka Samvat 1949Mesha (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 Thiruvananthapuram (8.5241°, 76.9366°)'s own sunrise — 06:11 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.
