The Hindu Panchang, also known as the Vedic calendar, is an ancient system that helps determine time, auspicious moments, and celestial movements with precision. It is based on five key elements—Tithi, Nakshatra, Yog, Karan and Vaar—each of which plays a significant role in deciding favourable timings for various activities.

On 28 November 2025, the day falls on Friday, along with the Krishna Paksha Ashtami Tithi of the Margashirsha month. The Ashtami Tithi will remain in effect until 2:55 AM, after which the Navami Tithi will begin. Today, the Moon will be positioned in Capricorn, while the day is influenced by Vishakha Nakshatra and the presence of Ayushman Yog.

Auspicious Timings (Shubh Muhurat)

The most favourable period of the day, Abhijit Muhurat, will be observed from 11:43 AM to 12:26 PM. This time is considered highly auspicious for beginning important work.
