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.

Rajkot Panchang — राजकोट पंचांग

State

Gujarat

Sunrise Range

6:06–7:33 AM

Coordinates

22.30°N, 70.80°E

The BAPS Swaminarayan Mandir stands on Kalawad Road in Rajkot. The city observes Navratri Garba, an annual five-day Janmashtami Mela at the Race Course grounds, and Uttarayan. All panchang, choghadiya, and rahu kaal timings are computed for Rajkot's exact coordinates in Indian Standard Time.

Rajkot's solar year — sunrise, sunset and day length

In Rajkot the longest day runs 13h 22m (June) and the shortest 10h 39m (December) — a seasonal swing of 2h 43m. Solar noon falls +47m from the 12:00 clock hour because Rajkot sits at 70.8°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.

Which places near Rajkot can read these Panchang timings

Kotharia lies 8 km south of Rajkot and sees sunrise −1m to +1m against it, so the sunrise row of this Panchang moves by that much there. Across every place listed below the shift runs −4m to +4m 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 Rajkot Panchang

The traditional Panchang (पंचांग, meaning “five limbs”) comprises five essential elements that determine auspiciousness for any activity in Rajkot:

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).

Rajkot Festivals & Panchang

Rajkot's major festivals — Navratri (Garba), Janmashtami Mela, Uttarayan (Makar Sankranti)— 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 Rajkot, use the Ishvaram Jyotish app.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is today's Panchang calculated for Rajkot?

The Panchang for Rajkot is calculated using Swiss Ephemeris with Rajkot's exact coordinates (Gujarat, latitude/longitude). Sunrise in Rajkot ranges from 6:06–7:33 AM seasonally, which affects the start of each Tithi. The Panchang shows today's Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana, and planetary positions — all calibrated to Rajkot's local time.

Can nearby towns like Kotharia use Rajkot's Panchang timings?

Almost, with a small shift. Kotharia lies 8 km south of Rajkot and sees sunrise −1m to +1m against it, so the sunrise row of this Panchang moves by that much there. Across the recorded places within 150 km of Rajkot that shift stays between −4m and +4m 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 Rajkot's slot.

Why are Rajkot's Panchang timings different from other cities?

Panchang timings vary because they are based on actual astronomical observations for a specific location. Rajkot's sunrise (6:06–7:33 AM), longitude, and latitude determine the precise start and end times of Tithis, Nakshatras, and Yogas. A Rajkot Panchang uses the city's actual coordinates rather than a single standard Indian time.

When is Navratri (Garba) in Rajkot in 2025–2026?

Navratri (Garba) 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 Rajkot-specific timing where relevant.
