About Chennai Panchang

Daily Vedic Panchang for Chennai, Tamil Nadu — calculated each day for the exact latitude 13.08°N and longitude 80.27°E. The five limbs of the Panchang — Tithi (lunar day), Vara (weekday), Nakshatra (lunar mansion), Yoga (luni-solar combination), and Karana (half-tithi) — are essential for selecting auspicious timings and daily religious observances.

All calculations use the Lahiri Ayanamsha (Chitrapaksha), the most widely used ayanamsha in Indian astrology. Sunrise and sunset times are computed for Chennai's geographic coordinates using the Asia/Kolkata timezone, accounting for daylight saving transitions where applicable. Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda Kaal, and Gulika Kaal are derived from the classical Vara-based formula.
