Calendar
The calendar shows each month with the Tithi, Nakshatra, festivals and auspicious days marked, worked out for your city. Switch between the Gregorian month and the Tamil, Malayalam or lunar month, tap any day to open its full Panchangam, and add reminders for the observances your family keeps.
Indian calendars count months in two ways. Tamil, Malayalam, Odia and Bengali calendars use solar months that begin when the Sun enters a new sign: Chithirai begins with the Sun in Aries, Vaikasi in Taurus, and so on. Most North Indian, Telugu, Kannada and Marathi calendars use lunar months named after the Nakshatra near the full Moon, such as Chaitra, Vaishakha and Kartika.
Every date lists the Tithi and Nakshatra at sunrise, the Paksha, the weekday lord, and any festival or vrata. Days with special significance are highlighted: Ekadashi, Pradosham, Amavasya, Pournami, Sashti, Karthigai and Sankatahara Chaturthi. Open the day to see the full Panchangam with Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam and Gulika timings.
The calendar can highlight days suitable for marriage, house warming, starting education or travel, based on general Muhurtham rules. For an important event, use the Muhurtham finder to choose a time matched to the people involved.
Sunrise, Tithi changes and Rahu Kalam all depend on location, so dates are worked out for the city you choose. Families abroad can set their current city and still follow Indian festival rules.
Choose Tamil, Kerala, Telugu, Kannada, North Indian or Bengali conventions to see month names and festivals in the form your family uses. Dates shown follow the Drik Panchangam method by default.
Add a festival or fasting day to your reminders to get a notice the evening before. You can also print a month or share it with family on WhatsApp.
The Tamil year begins with Chithirai, usually on 14 April, and runs through Vaikasi, Aani, Aadi, Avani, Purattasi, Aippasi, Karthigai, Margazhi, Thai, Maasi and Panguni. Each month carries its own festivals: Aadi Perukku and Aadi Amavasya in Aadi, Navaratri in Purattasi, Deepavali and Skanda Sashti in Aippasi, Karthigai Deepam in Karthigai, Vaikunta Ekadashi in Margazhi, and Pongal and Thaipusam in Thai. Years follow a cycle of sixty names, from Prabhava to Akshaya.
Because twelve lunar months are about eleven days shorter than the solar year, an extra lunar month called Adhika Masa is added roughly every thirty-two months. During an Adhika Masa, major ceremonies such as weddings are usually avoided, and festivals move to the regular month that follows. The calendar marks these months clearly.
The calendar shows the Tamil month and date alongside the Gregorian date.
When the Sun enters the next sign, usually around the 14th to 17th of each Gregorian month.
