हैदराबाद पंचांग · Hyderabad Panchang Monday, 28 September 2026 · Bhadrapada Krishna Dvitiya · Bhagyanagar
Sunrise in Hyderabad, Telangana is 06:06 IST today — 7 minutes earlier than New Delhi, because the city sits at 78.49°E on a clock set for 82.5°E. Every reading below is taken at that sunrise, which is the traditional anchor, so the boundary times here can differ by minutes from an almanac typeset for another meridian.

Today in Hyderabad
Two Telangana observances sit squarely on the panchang. Bonalu runs through Ashadha, temple by temple across the twin cities on the Sundays of that lunar month rather than on one fixed day. Bathukamma occupies the nine nights from Mahalaya Amavasya to Durgashtami in Ashwin, ending the evening before Saddula Bathukamma — so the Amavasya boundary time on this page is the one that decides when the stacking begins.
Hyderabad is running Bhadrapada Krishna Dvitiya today, which holds until 19:20. Keep anything you are starting fresh outside Rahu Kaal 07:36–09:06; the cleanest window of the day is Abhijit at 11:43–12:31.

Frequently asked questions
What time is sunrise in Hyderabad today, and why does it differ from New Delhi?
Sunrise in Hyderabad today is 06:06 IST and sunset is 18:08 IST — 7 minutes earlier than New Delhi. The cause is longitude, not the calendar: the whole country keeps one clock set to 82.5°E while Hyderabad sits at 78.49°E, and every degree is worth about four minutes of sky. Everything on this page — the tithi and nakshatra readings, Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika and the Choghadiya split — is anchored to that local sunrise rather than to a Delhi almanac's.
Which lunar-month system does this page use for Hyderabad, and does it change the tithi?
Telangana follows the amanta month, so this page names Hyderabad's month the way a Telugu panchangam does, ending it at Amavasya. Ugadi opens that year on Chaitra Shukla Pratipada, and the Telugu almanac read that morning is organised by the same five limbs listed on this page — tithi, vara, nakshatra, yoga, karana — in the same order. Today the amanta reckoning calls this month Bhadrapada and the purnimanta reckoning calls it Ashwin; the tithi is the same number in both. If you were quoted a date in the purnimanta system, the day is still the same day.
What this page cannot tell you
This is a panchang, not a birth chart. The tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and kaal windows above are the same for everyone standing in this city today; none of them knows your Moon sign, your running dasha, or the lagna that would rise at the hour you pick. Several observances also follow a rule this page does not apply — Janmashtami is settled at midnight, Diwali at pradosh, some ekadashi vratas by their parana window — so a temple's announced date can sit a day either side of the tithi marked here. Where that matters, check against your own family almanac; a disagreement between two panchangs is usually a difference of convention, not of fact.
How these timings were computed
Sunrise and sunset come from a NOAA solar-position model applied to Hyderabad's actual coordinates (17.3850°N, 78.4867°E), not to a district centroid or a state capital. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are read at that same local sunrise from a sidereal ephemeris using the Lahiri ayanamsa, and their end times are found by bisection to about a minute. Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika are the weekday-selected eighths of the real daylight span, which is why they move through the year instead of sitting at a fixed clock hour. Nothing on this page is copied from a printed almanac.
