At sunrise (06:35 IST) the tithi in Surat is Shukla Saptami. It lasts until 08:28, 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 Purva Ashadha nakshatra at sunrise today and stays there until 12:48, then moves into Uttara Ashadha. The Moon is in Dhanu (Sagittarius) rashi.
Rahu Kaal in Surat today is 16:45 to 18:12 IST, Yamaganda 12:23 to 13:50 and Gulika Kaal 15:17 to 16:45. The auspicious Abhijit Muhurat is 12:00 to 12:46.
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 Ashwin, 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.
