What is Panchang?+
Panchang(literally "five limbs") is the traditional Hindu calendar and almanac. It consists of five elements: Tithi (lunar day), Nakshatra (lunar mansion), Yoga (luni-solar combination), Karana (half of tithi), and Vara (weekday). It is used daily to determine auspicious timings for rituals, ceremonies, and important activities.
The Tithiis calculated from the angular distance between the Sun and Moon. Each 12 degrees of separation equals one tithi, giving 30 tithis in a lunar month — 15 in the waxing phase (Shukla Paksha) and 15 in the waning phase (Krishna Paksha).
Checking the daily panchang is an integral part of Hindu tradition. It helps in selecting muhurtas (auspicious moments) for starting new ventures, performing puja, fasting on specific tithis like Ekadashi, and understanding the planetary influences of the day.

Chandigarh Panchang — चंडीगढ़ पंचांग
State
Punjab/Haryana
Sunrise Range
5:24–7:25 AM
Coordinates
30.73°N, 76.78°E
Chandigarh, the planned capital of Punjab and Haryana. Mansa Devi Temple and Panchkula Nada Sahib Gurudwara are the city's major pilgrimage destinations. Baisakhi, Lohri, and Gurpurab are the most celebrated festivals. Chandigarh's educated, progressive population continues traditional Panchanga practices for marriages, career moves, and business decisions — demonstrating that modernity and tradition coexist.
Chandigarh's solar year — sunrise, sunset and day length
In Chandigarh the longest day runs 13h 59m (June) and the shortest 10h 02m (December) — a seasonal swing of 3h 57m. Solar noon falls +23m from the 12:00 clock hour because Chandigarh sits at 76.78°E rather than on the 82.5°E IST meridian. Every Tithi, Nakshatra and Rahu Kaal window on this page is derived from that sunrise, not from a national average.

| January | 07:25 | 17:39 | 10h 14m | 12:32 | — |
| February | 07:08 | 18:06 | 10h 59m | 12:37 | +45m |

Which places near Chandigarh can read these Panchang timings
Naya Gaon lies 5 km north of Chandigarh and sees sunrise −1m to 0m against it, so the sunrise row of this Panchang moves by that much there. Across every place listed below the shift runs −2m to +2m and each of the eight daylight periods keeps the same length it has here, so the periods do not stretch — only the boundary moves.

Five Elements of Chandigarh Panchang
The traditional Panchang (पंचांग, meaning “five limbs”) comprises five essential elements that determine auspiciousness for any activity in Chandigarh:
Tithi (तिथि)
Lunar day — the angular relationship between Sun and Moon. 30 Tithis per lunar month.
Nakshatra (नक्षत्र)
Lunar mansion — the constellation the Moon occupies. 27 Nakshatras in the lunar zodiac.
Yoga (योग)
Combination of Sun and Moon longitudes. 27 Yogas from Vishkambha to Vaidhriti.
Karana (करण)
Half-Tithi — there are 11 Karanas, cycling through 60 Karanas in a lunar month.
Vara (वार)
Day of the week, each ruled by a planet (Sun=Sunday through Saturn=Saturday).
Chandigarh Festivals & Panchang
Chandigarh's major festivals — Baisakhi, Lohri, Diwali— are calculated using the Hindu lunisolar calendar. Festival dates change each year because the lunar calendar drifts against the solar calendar. The Panchang above shows today's Tithi and Nakshatra. For complete annual festival almanacs with specific timings for Chandigarh, use the Ishvaram Jyotish app.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is today's Panchang calculated for Chandigarh?
The Panchang for Chandigarh is calculated using Swiss Ephemeris with Chandigarh's exact coordinates (Punjab/Haryana, latitude/longitude). Sunrise in Chandigarh ranges from 5:24–7:25 AM seasonally, which affects the start of each Tithi. The Panchang shows today's Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana, and planetary positions — all calibrated to Chandigarh's local time.
Can nearby towns like Naya Gaon use Chandigarh's Panchang timings?
Almost, with a small shift. Naya Gaon lies 5 km north of Chandigarh and sees sunrise −1m to 0m against it, so the sunrise row of this Panchang moves by that much there. Across the recorded places within 150 km of Chandigarh that shift stays between −2m and +2m through the year — the nearby-place table above lists each one. For a town whose shift runs past a few minutes, compute with its own coordinates instead of copying Chandigarh's slot.
Why are Chandigarh's Panchang timings different from other cities?
Panchang timings vary because they are based on actual astronomical observations for a specific location. Chandigarh's sunrise (5:24–7:25 AM), longitude, and latitude determine the precise start and end times of Tithis, Nakshatras, and Yogas. A Chandigarh Panchang uses the city's actual coordinates rather than a single standard Indian time.
When is Baisakhi in Chandigarh in 2025–2026?
Baisakhi dates are determined by the Hindu lunisolar calendar and are the same across India, though local observance customs vary. The Panchang above shows today's Tithi and Nakshatra, which you can use to track approaching festivals. For annual festival calendars, the Ishvaram Jyotish app provides complete Indian festival almanacs with Chandigarh-specific timing where relevant.
