Bihar Sharif: tomorrow’s questions
Which tithi is it tomorrow?
On 20 Oct 2026 in Bihar Sharif, the tithi at sunrise is Shukla Navami (Shukla paksha), until 12:50 PM; then Shukla Dashami. The month is Ashvin (amanta) / Ashvin (purnimanta).
Which nakshatra is it tomorrow?
Shravana at sunrise, until 6:02 PM; then Dhanishta.
When is rahu kaal in Bihar Sharif tomorrow?
From 2:24 PM to 3:50 PM. Yamaganda is 8:40 AM–10:06 AM and gulika 11:32 AM–12:58 PM.
What time is sunrise in Bihar Sharif tomorrow?
Sunrise is at 5:48 AM and sunset at 5:16 PM — the Sun's upper limb with standard refraction, the convention of the Indian Astronomical Ephemeris and of Drik Panchang (our times agree with the official ephemeris within a quarter of a minute). Almanacs that print the Sun's centre without refraction give sunrise about 3–4 minutes later and sunset as much earlier.
Is there a vrat or festival tomorrow?
Durga Puja: Ashvin Shukla Shashthi to Dashami. Shashthi (Bodhon) and Maha Saptami are each the day their tithi holds at sunrise — the later day when it holds two sunrises. Maha Ashtami is the Durga Ashtami day (Ashtami at sunrise), Maha Navami the day Navami holds at aparahna, and Vijaya Dashami (visarjan, sindoor khela) the day Dashami holds at sunrise. Sandhi Puja spans the last 24 minutes of Ashtami and the first 24 of Navami. Dussehra (Vijayadashami): Ashvin Shukla Dashami prevailing at aparahna (the fourth fifth of the day); if on both days, the first.
Tomorrow in cities near Bihar Sharif
The same day for New Delhi, with the days around it and the whole month: panchang for 20 Oct 2026.
Why Bihar Sharif's times differ from other cities
Bihar Sharif lies at 25.2°N, 85.5°E. Indian Standard Time is kept on the 82.5°E meridian; Bihar Sharif is 3.0° east of it, so its mean sun runs about 12 minutes ahead of the clock. Today its solar noon, midway between sunrise and sunset, falls at 11:32 AM and the day lasts 11 h 28 m; every time counted from sunrise, rahu kaal, choghadiya and hora among them, moves with it.
Compared with New Delhi, sunrise in Bihar Sharif today comes 36 minutes earlier and sunset 30 minutes earlier, so the day here is 6 minutes longer (11 h 28 m against 11 h 22 m). Bihar Sharif is 3.4° south of New Delhi: the nearer the equator, the closer the day stays to 12 hours all year; the farther north, the wider the swing between summer and winter days.
Reading a panchang
The tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana above are read at this city's sunrise, and the weekday runs from sunrise to the next sunrise. What each limb means, kshaya and vriddhi tithis, and how rahu kaal is made: how to read a panchang; terms in the glossary.
