Panchang for Kolkata
India’s easternmost metro — the Sun rises here well before the rest of the country on the same clock.

An easy-does-it day
Reading the day
- Friday · Venus’s day
- Favours the arts and music, romance and marriage, jewellery, clothing, and comforts.
- Ashlesha · Tikshna (sharp) star
- The Moon’s star suits separations, stern measures, and intense discipline — not auspicious starts.
- Purna (full) tithi
- A tithi of completion — ceremonies, fulfilment, and all auspicious work.
- The Shula yoga is counted inauspicious in its opening portion only; the rest of its span is usable.
- Disha Shool sits in the west — travellers traditionally avoid beginning a journey toward the west today.
