Panchang is the Vedic almanac giving five daily elements — Tithi, Vara (weekday), Nakshatra, Yoga, and Karana — for auspicious timing.

Tithi is the lunar day — there are 30 Tithis in a lunar month based on the angular difference between Sun and Moon.

Rahu Kaal is a ~90-minute inauspicious period each day, calculated from sunrise. Starting important activities during Rahu Kaal is traditionally avoided.

Why does location matter for Panchang?

Sunrise and sunset times vary by location, and many Panchang elements (like Rahu Kaal) are calculated relative to local sunrise.

Is this Panchang accurate?

Yes — it uses Swiss Ephemeris with Lahiri ayanamsa for planetary positions and local sunrise/sunset calculations.
