Questions people ask
Which month system does the Marathi calendar use?
Amanta: each lunar month ends at the new moon (Amavasya). The year turns at Gudi Padwa, the first day of Chaitra, and is counted in the Shaka era, shown at the top of the page.
How is today's tithi decided?
The tithi running at Mumbai's sunrise names the day. The page also gives the moment it ends, because a tithi rarely lines up with a calendar day; the nakshatra, yoga and karan follow it.
Are the festival names the Maharashtra ones?
Yes. Gudi Padwa, Narali Purnima, Bhau Beej, Diwali Padwa and Kartiki Ekadashi are named as Maharashtra names them, while the dates come from the same computation as the rest of the site.
Why are the times for Mumbai?
Every time is counted from Mumbai's sunrise and sunset. Pune or Nagpur see the Sun at a different minute, which moves Rahu Kaal and the choghadiya. The month above is worked out for your own place.
