What the Panchang API gives you

A panchang is the Hindu almanac for one day at one place. It covers the weekday, tithi, nakshatra, yog and karan (half of a lunar day). Each of these ends at its own time, and sunrise moves with the seasons and the city.

Send us a date, a time and a place. We return the panchang for that moment, with end times for each part and the good and bad time windows of the day. You can show a simple daily card or a full almanac page.

  • Five daily parts

    Tithi, nakshatra, yog and karan with their number, name, deity and end time, plus the weekday.

  • Sun and Moon times

    Sunrise, sunset, moonrise and moonset, and a separate Vedic sunrise and sunset.

  • Good and bad windows

Panchang API FAQ

What is a panchang?

A panchang is the Hindu almanac. For each day it gives the tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the star the Moon is in), yog and karan, plus sunrise and sunset. People use it to pick good times for events.

Why do I need to send a place?

Sunrise and sunset change from city to city. Time windows such as Rahu kaal and Chaughadiya depend on them. So the same date can give different times in Delhi and in London. Send lat, lon and tzone for the place you care about.

Can I get a whole month in one call?

Yes. monthly_panchang returns the tithi and nakshatra numbers, sunrise and sunset for every day of a month. tamil_month_panchang does the same with Tamil names and the paksha (lunar half).

Do you return festivals?

Yes. panchang_festival lists the festivals for a date, in English or Hindi. festivals-by-date returns the festivals and events for a date and place, with a count of results.

Which languages can the text come back in?

Most panchang endpoints support English, Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada. monthly_panchang, tamil_panchang and panchang_lagna_table return English only.
