Panchang for Vadodara — 16 January 2027

Shukla Ashtami tithi, Ashwini nakshatra · Saturday · Gujarat (22.3072°, 73.1812°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Shuddha (Pure)Vikram Samvat 2084 (Raudri)Shaka Samvat 1949Makara (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 Vadodara (22.3072°, 73.1812°)'s own sunrise — 07:19 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.
