Choghadiya for Mandi divides the day, sunrise to sunset, and the night into 8 windows each, timed by the city's own sun times. Seven names rotate through them: Amrit, Shubh and Labh are auspicious, Char is neutral, while Rog, Kaal and Udveg are traditionally avoided for new beginnings.
Mandi Choghadiya — मंडी चौघड़िया
State
Himachal Pradesh
Sunrise Range
5:21–7:27 AM
Coordinates
31.70°N, 76.93°E
Mandi's 81 ancient stone temples earn it the title Chhoti Kashi, the Varanasi of the Hills. Panchang, choghadiya, and rahu kaal timings are computed for Mandi's exact coordinates.
Local Choghadiya Context in Mandi
If festival preparation, a vrat, puja sankalp, travel, a shop opening, document signing, or a family decision starts inside Mandi, use this city's table. No local observance is inferred without subject-bound evidence.
Mandi coordinate facts for Choghadiya: 31.7048 degrees north; 76.9320 degrees east; state Himachal Pradesh; timezone Asia/Kolkata; sunrise range 5:21–7:27 AM. These facts define the city's daylight envelope, so do not copy a Shubh, Labh, Amrit, Char, Kaal, Rog, or Udveg slot from another city into Mandi.
Mandi Choghadiya belongs to the place where the first irreversible step begins. Living elsewhere in Himachal Pradesh, or dealing with someone in another city, does not change that starting location.
Mandi's periods are derived from 31.7048 degrees north, 76.9320 degrees east, Asia/Kolkata, and the local sunrise range 5:21–7:27 AM. A table calculated for another city is therefore not interchangeable with this one.
Name the physical action first — payment, signature, journey, delivery, shop opening, or puja sankalp — then check that Mandi period against Panchang and Rahu Kaal. This page makes no local landmark, custom, or observance claim without subject-bound evidence.

How Mandi Residents Use Choghadiya Today
Use the Mandi table for the place where the first physical action begins. If the person lives in Himachal Pradesh but the journey, delivery, meeting, griha pravesh, or sankalp starts elsewhere, switch to that city's page before choosing the muhurat.
For Mandi, read the table with the daylight span 5:21–7:27 AM, and the coordinates 31.7048 degrees north, 76.9320 degrees east. Those governed inputs separate a Mandi Choghadiya decision from a generic all-India timing rule.
For expensive or irreversible work in Mandi, treat Choghadiya as the quick filter and then verify the same date with Mandi's Panchang, Rahu Kaal, and Shubh Muhurat pages. All three use the same local coordinate set.
Compare the selected Choghadiya with the day's Panchang and Rahu Kaal before fixing the final muhurat.
Nearby timing pages for Shimla, Dharamsala, Solan, Chandigarh, Mangaluru, Manali are linked below because sunrise, sunset, and period boundaries can move even across short regional distances. Use those pages when the work starts outside Mandi.
Other Himachal Pradesh city pages here include Shimla, Dharamsala, Manali, Solan. Compare them only for route planning or family coordination; choose the final muhurat from the exact city where the first action begins.
Frequently Asked Questions
What time does Amrit Choghadiya start today in Mandi?
Use the live Amrit row on this Mandi page. It is calculated from मंडी / Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, 31.7048 degrees north, 76.9320 degrees east, and the local sunrise range 5:21–7:27 AM, so the start shown here belongs to Mandi only.
Is Mandi Choghadiya different from nearby cities?
Yes. The table divides Mandi's daylight and night into local periods. Another city in Himachal Pradesh can shift a boundary, so keep Mandi's row only for work that starts in Mandi.
How should I use Mandi Choghadiya around a festival or vrat?
Use a supportive Mandi period for the first step of the plan, then confirm the full day with Mandi's Panchang when the ritual, vrat, shop opening, or journey has higher stakes. The page does not label an observance local without subject-bound sources.
Should I use Mandi Choghadiya or Rahu Kaal first?
Use both for Mandi. First choose a supportive Choghadiya period for the work, then check that the same Mandi slot does not overlap Rahu Kaal.
