The panchang in Pune
Pune follows the Amanta calendar, like the rest of Maharashtra. This is the city where the public Ganeshotsav began: Lokmanya Tilak turned it into a community festival in the 1890s, and the order of the city's five "Manache Ganpati" is still followed in the immersion procession every year.
Temples to visit in Pune
- Shreemant Dagdusheth Halwai Ganpati: Pune’s most famous Ganesha, beautifully decorated during Ganeshotsav.
- Kasba Ganpati: The gramdevta of Pune and the first of the five Manache Ganpati.
- Parvati Hill Temples: 103 steps up to Peshwa-era temples, with the best view of the city at sunrise.
- Chaturshringi Temple: A Devi temple on a hill in Senapati Bapat Road, famous for its Navratri fair.
How to read today's panchang
For thousands of years, Hindu families have looked at the panchang before a puja, a fast, a journey or a wedding. Its name means "five limbs", and those five parts describe the quality of each day:
- Tithi: the lunar day. There are 30 in a lunar month: 15 in the bright half (Shukla Paksha) ending with Purnima, and 15 in the dark half (Krishna Paksha) ending with Amavasya. Fasts such as Ekadashi and festivals such as Diwali are fixed by tithi.
- Vaar: the weekday, each ruled by a planet: Monday by the Moon, Tuesday by Mars, and so on. This is why Monday is Shiva's day and Tuesday Hanuman's.
- Nakshatra: the lunar mansion the Moon is passing through, one of 27. Nakshatras like Pushya and Rohini are considered especially auspicious for beginnings.
- Yoga: one of 27 combinations of the Sun's and Moon's positions. Most are favourable; a few, such as Vyatipata and Vaidhriti, are avoided for ceremonies.
- Karana: half of a tithi. Vishti karana, also called Bhadra, is traditionally avoided for auspicious work. For example, rakhi is not tied during Bhadra.
Good and difficult times of the day
Abhijit Muhurat, around local noon, is considered victorious and suitable for starting important work on most days. Brahma Muhurta, about an hour and a half before sunrise, is the traditional time for prayer, meditation and study. Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika Kaal are periods in which many families avoid beginning anything new.

Panchang: common questions
What is a panchang?
A panchang (from pancha, five, and anga, limb) is the Hindu almanac. For each day it gives five elements: tithi (lunar day), vaar (weekday), nakshatra (the Moon’s star), yoga and karana, along with sunrise, sunset and auspicious and inauspicious times. Families use it to choose dates for pujas, fasts and ceremonies.
Why is the tithi different from the date?
A tithi is the time the Moon takes to move 12 degrees ahead of the Sun, which is anywhere from about 19 to 26 hours. Because it does not match the 24-hour calendar day, a tithi can begin at any time of day. By tradition, the tithi prevailing at sunrise is the tithi of the day.
What is Rahu Kaal and should I avoid it?
Rahu Kaal is a period of about an hour and a half each day, calculated by dividing the time from sunrise to sunset into eight parts. Many families avoid starting new work, journeys or auspicious ceremonies in Rahu Kaal. Daily routine and ongoing work can continue as usual.
Why do panchang timings differ between cities?
Sunrise and sunset depend on where you are. Rahu Kaal, Abhijit Muhurat and other periods are calculated from local sunrise and sunset, so they change from city to city, even though tithi and nakshatra end times are the same across India.
What is the difference between Purnimanta and Amanta months?
In the Purnimanta system, followed mostly in North India, a month ends on the full moon (Purnima). In the Amanta system, followed in much of South and West India, a month ends on the new moon (Amavasya). The fortnight after a full moon therefore has different month names in the two systems.
