15 Sep 2028: questions
Which tithi is it on 15 Sep 2028?
On 15 Sep 2028 in New Delhi, the tithi at sunrise is Krishna Ekadashi (Krishna paksha), until 1:42 PM; then Krishna Dwadashi. The month is Bhadrapada (amanta) / Ashvin (purnimanta).
Which nakshatra is it on 15 Sep 2028?
Pushya at sunrise, until 11:30 PM; then Ashlesha.
When is rahu kaal in New Delhi on 15 Sep 2028?
From 10:43 AM to 12:16 PM. Yamaganda is 3:20 PM–4:53 PM and gulika 7:38 AM–9:11 AM.
What time is sunrise in New Delhi on 15 Sep 2028?
Sunrise is at 6:06 AM and sunset at 6:25 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 on 15 Sep 2028?
Pitru Paksha: From the Krishna Pratipada shraddha after Bhadrapada Purnima to Sarva Pitru Amavasya (Ashvin Krishna in the purnimanta reckoning); each shraddha tithi is taken at aparahna. Indira Ekadashi: Smarta rule: the day with Ekadashi at sunrise, with Dwadashi left for the next morning’s parana.

Reading a panchang
- Tithi
- Each 12° of separation between the Moon and the Sun is one tithi — 30 in a lunar month, 15 in each of the bright (Shukla) and dark (Krishna) halves. A day takes the tithi running at sunrise; sometimes a tithi never touches a sunrise (kshaya) and sometimes one spans two (vriddhi).
- Nakshatra
- The 27 equal lunar mansions of the zodiac, each 13°20′. The Moon crosses about one a day. Muhurat and naming lean on the nakshatra more than anything else.
- Yoga
- The sum of the Sun’s and Moon’s sidereal longitudes, in 27 parts of 13°20′, from Vishkumbha to Vaidhriti; Vyatipata and Vaidhriti are avoided for auspicious work.
- Karana
- Half a tithi — usually two in a day. Nothing auspicious is begun in Vishti (Bhadra) karana.
- Vara
- The Hindu weekday runs from sunrise to the next sunrise, not from midnight.
- Rahu kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika
- Daylight split into eight parts, one part each by weekday. Tradition avoids them for beginning something new; ordinary work goes on.
- Choghadiya and hora
- Choghadiya divides day and night into eight parts each; a hora gives the ruling planet of each twelfth of the day. Both are widely used for business and travel.
Every figure comes from our own engine (VSOP87 / ELP, Lahiri ayanamsa), tested against the Swiss Ephemeris; tithi and nakshatra end times are accurate to about 2 minutes.
