Margashirsha, Krishna Paksha · Vikram Samvat 2083 · Shaka 1948
Pratipada
25 November 2026 is Margashirsha Krishna Paksha Pratipada, a Budhvaar (बुधवार). The tithi runs from 8:23 PM on 24 November 2026 until 4:50 PM. Sunrise at New Delhi is 6:51 AM and sunset is 5:24 PM. Rahu Kaal falls between 12:07 PM and 1:26 PM, and the Abhijit Muhurat is 11:46 AM to 12:28 PM, though Abhijit is not observed on a Wednesday.
Tithi, Paksha and Vaar (तिथि)
Pratipada begins 8:23 PM, 24 Nov and ends 4:50 PM.
Shubh Muhurat (शुभ मुहूर्त)
Abhijit is the eighth of the fifteen muhurtas between sunrise and sunset, so it is 42 minutes long today rather than a fixed 48 — it stretches and shrinks with the length of the day.
Ashubh Kaal (अशुभ काल)
We do not publish Varjyam, Dur Muhurat or Godhuli Muhurat. The rules behind them are known, but the underlying tables differ between sources by enough to move a window by the better part of an hour — and these are windows whose whole purpose is telling you not to begin something. We would rather leave them out than print a number we cannot stand behind.
Choghadiya (चौघड़िया)
The day and the night are each divided into eight parts. Amrit, Shubh and Labh are auspicious; Char is neutral; Udveg, Kaal and Rog are best avoided. It is the quickest check there is for whether the next hour and a half is a good time to begin something.
Day — sunrise 6:51 AM to sunset 5:24 PM
Night — sunset 5:24 PM to sunrise 6:52 AM
The night choghadiya belongs to Budhvaar, not to the next day: in the panchang the weekday changes at sunrise, not at midnight.
Nakshatra, Yoga and Karana (नक्षत्र)
The Moon is in Rohini at sunrise, in its 2nd pada. A karana is half a tithi, which is why there are more of them in a day than anything else here.
Sun and Moon (सूर्य और चंद्र)
Day length is 10 hours 33 minutes, night 13 hours 28 minutes.
Hora (होरा)
Twenty-four planetary hours from sunrise, in the Chaldean order. The first is always ruled by the lord of the weekday — Mercury (Budh) today, which is what makes it Budhvaar. Day horas and night horas are not sixty minutes each; they are a twelfth of the actual day and a twelfth of the actual night.
Rashi, Masa and Samvat (मास)
The two masa reckonings differ through every waning fortnight, which is why a calendar from Delhi and one from Chennai can name the same day differently. Today it is Margashirsha in the north and Kartik in the south.
