At sunrise (07:05 IST) the tithi in Mumbai is Shukla Navami. It lasts until 23:14, after which Shukla Dashami begins. A tithi is one of 30 lunar days, each the time the Moon takes to gain 12 degrees on the Sun.
The Moon is in Uttara Bhadrapada nakshatra at sunrise on 18 Dec 2026 and stays there until 16:09, then moves into Revati. The Moon is in Meena (Pisces) rashi.
Rahu Kaal in Mumbai on 18 Dec 2026 is 11:12 to 12:34 IST, Yamaganda 15:19 to 16:42 and Gulika Kaal 08:27 to 09:50. The auspicious Abhijit Muhurat is 12:12 to 12:56.
Panchang means five limbs: tithi (lunar day), vara (weekday), nakshatra (the Moon's lunar mansion), yoga (from the combined longitude of Sun and Moon) and karana (half a tithi). Each is read at local sunrise for the day.
It is Margashirsha, Shukla paksha, in Vikram Samvat 2083 (Shaka 1948). North Indian calendars count months purnimanta (ending on the full moon); much of South and West India counts amanta (ending on the new moon), so the month name can differ in the dark fortnight.
