Panchang · Ahmedabad
Ahmedabad's Brahma muhurat opens at 04:44 am today, with sunrise at 06:20 am. Rahu Kaal runs from 07:55 am to 09:31 am, so hold off on important new starts in that window. Today is Shukla Dwadashi, with the Moon in Purva Ashadha.
Monday, 24 August 2026. The day’s five limbs computed for Ahmedabad from real ephemeris, with sunrise, the auspicious windows, and the windows to wait out.

The five limbs
Panchang means “five limbs”. Together they describe the quality of the day for ritual, work, and decision. End times are the exact moments each limb gives way to the next.

Nakshatra
Purva Ashadha
The Moon’s lodge. It colours the mood, the people you meet, and the kind of effort that flows.
Ends at 08:28 pm

Priti
The Sun and Moon together. It tells you whether the day’s energy is smooth or rough.
Ends at 07:04 am

Half a tithi. It nudges practical matters: signing, fixing, beginning small things.

Auspicious windows
Brahma Muhurat
04:44 am to 05:32 am
The quiet ninety-six minutes before sunrise. Use it for prayer, study, and any work that needs a still mind.
Abhijit Muhurat
12:16 pm to 01:07 pm
The middle twenty-four minutes of the day. A safe slot for any new beginning, even when the rest of the day looks uncertain.
Windows to avoid
Rahu Kaal
07:55 am to 09:31 am
Hold off on starting anything important. Routine work is fine.
Yamaganda
11:06 am to 12:41 pm
Heavy energy. Not the time to launch, sign, or commit.
Gulika Kalam
02:17 pm to 03:52 pm
Saturn’s son. Whatever begins here tends to drag, so wait it out.
