Today Panchang Shimla — Tithi, Nakshatra, Rahu Kalam & Shubh Muhurat
The live tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and Rahu Kalam for Shimla are shown above, computed fresh from actual Sun-Moon positions and Shimla's own sunrise/sunset — refreshed automatically, not a fixed daily repeat.
Why Panchang Differs By City
Tithi, nakshatra and yoga are the same across India on a given date, but Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Gulika Kalam and Abhijit Muhurat all depend on the local sunrise and sunset — which shift by several minutes between cities at different longitudes and latitudes. This is why a "one size fits all" Panchang printed for a different city can be meaningfully off for Shimla.
How To Use Today's Panchang
- Tithi & nakshatra: useful for identifying auspicious days for starting new activities.
- Rahu Kalam / Yamagandam / Gulika Kalam: traditionally avoided for starting anything important.
- Abhijit Muhurat: considered auspicious for most activities, timing permitting.

FAQs
Does this update every day?
Yes — the Panchang above is computed live for Shimla's current date, not a static snapshot.
Why is Shimla's Rahu Kalam different from Delhi's?
Rahu Kalam is calculated from local sunrise-to-sunset, split into 8 parts — different longitude/latitude means different sunrise/sunset times, and therefore a different Rahu Kalam window.
