At sunrise (06:59 IST) the tithi in Pune is Shukla Saptami. It lasts until 22:46, after which Shukla Ashtami 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 Shatabhisha nakshatra at sunrise on 16 Dec 2026 and stays there until 14:01, then moves into Purva Bhadrapada. The Moon is in Kumbha (Aquarius) rashi.
Rahu Kaal in Pune on 16 Dec 2026 is 12:30 to 13:52 IST, Yamaganda 08:21 to 09:44 and Gulika Kaal 11:07 to 12:30. The auspicious Abhijit Muhurat is 12:08 to 12:52.
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.
