Katra Choghadiya — कटरा चौघड़िया

Katra is the base camp for the Vaishno Devi pilgrimage — India's second most visited religious site after Tirupati with 8–10 million annual pilgrims. The 13km trek to the cave shrine is begun at an auspicious muhurta (Panchang-computed, available at the yatra registration counter). The cave houses the sacred Pindies (natural rock formations) of Mata Vaishno Devi. Navratri sees the highest pilgrim density — auspicious muhurtas are especially critical during this period.
Local Choghadiya Context in Katra
Katra (कटरा) local observances include Navratri, Diwali, Ram Navami. Keep this page for starts that happen inside Katra: festival preparation, vrat planning, puja sankalp, travel departure, shop opening, document signing, and family decisions tied to the city's own panchang.

Katra's local Choghadiya context is anchored by Katra, कटरा, Jammu, Kashmir, base, camp, Vaishno, Devi, pilgrimage, India's, second, most, visited, religious, site, Tirupati, with, million. These local markers matter because a period chosen for a shop opening, temple visit, document signing, or journey should match the place where the first action physically begins.
How Katra Residents Use Choghadiya Today
Use the Katra table for the place where the first physical action begins. If the person lives in Jammu & Kashmir but the journey, delivery, meeting, griha pravesh, or sankalp starts elsewhere, switch to that city's page before choosing the muhurat.
For Katra, read the table with the city's festival calendar (Navratri, Diwali, Ram Navami), the daylight span 5:20–7:25 AM, and the coordinates 32.9920 degrees north, 74.9318 degrees east. That combination is what separates a Katra Choghadiya decision from a generic all-India timing rule.
For expensive or irreversible work in Katra, treat Choghadiya as the quick filter and then verify the same date with Katra's Panchang, Rahu Kaal, and Shubh Muhurat pages. All three use the same local coordinate set.
Nearby timing pages for New Delhi, Faridabad, Chandigarh, Dehradun, Bikaner, Noida are linked below because sunrise, sunset, and period boundaries can move even across short regional distances. Use those pages when the work starts outside Katra.
Frequently Asked Questions
What time does Amrit Choghadiya start today in Katra?
Use the live Amrit row on this Katra page. It is calculated from कटरा / Katra, Jammu & Kashmir, 32.9920 degrees north, 74.9318 degrees east, and the local sunrise range 5:20–7:25 AM, so the start shown here belongs to Katra only.
Is Katra Choghadiya different from nearby cities?
Yes. The table divides Katra's daylight and night into local periods. Another city in Jammu & Kashmir can shift a boundary, so keep Katra's row only for work that starts in Katra.
How do Katra residents use Choghadiya for local festivals?
For Katra, people commonly check Choghadiya around Navratri, Diwali, Ram Navami. Use a supportive period for the first step, then confirm the full day with Katra's Panchang when the ritual, vrat, shop opening, or journey has higher stakes.
Should I use Katra Choghadiya or Rahu Kaal first?
Use both for Katra. First choose a supportive Choghadiya period for the work, then check that the same Katra slot does not overlap Rahu Kaal.
