Kakinada Telugu Panchangam — కాకినాడ పంచాంగం

కాకినాడ, ఆంధ్రప్రదేశ్ · 16.989°N, 82.247°E

Lahiri Ayanamsa · Sunday, 18 October 2026 · Sunrise 5:54 AM · Sunset 5:38 PM

Kakinada Telugu Panchangam (కాకినాడ పంచాంగం) gives today's tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana, Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Gulika, Abhijit Muhurat, sunrise, sunset, moonrise, moonset and choghadiya for Kakinada's own coordinates (16.989°N, 82.247°E in Andhra Pradesh), shown above and rebuilt every morning. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are the same in Kakinada as anywhere in India; the sunrise-derived windows — Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Gulika, Abhijit Muhurat and choghadiya — are Kakinada's own, computed from its sunrise rather than Hyderabad's. All computations use Lahiri Ayanamsa via Swiss Ephemeris. Kakinada is the largest city of East Godavari district. The nearby Annavaram Satyanarayana temple is one of South India's most popular Vrat pilgrimage destinations — Satyanarayana Vrat is performed here on most full moons (purnimas). Pithapuram is one of the 18 Maha Shakti Peethas (Puruhutika Devi).

Kakinada Daily Observance Timings

Kakinada sunrise determines all daily panchangam observance windows. Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Gulika, and Choghadiya windows are computed by dividing the day (sunrise to sunset) into 8 equal parts and assigning specific intervals to each. Because Kakinada's sunrise differs from other Indian cities by a few minutes, all these windows shift accordingly.

Inauspicious Daily Windows

  • Rahu Kalam (varies by weekday, 1.5 hours)
  • Yamagandam (varies by weekday, 1.5 hours)
  • Gulika Kalam (varies by weekday, 1.5 hours)
  • Durmuhurtam (variable per day)
  • Varjyam (recurs based on nakshatra)

Auspicious Daily Windows

  • Brahma Muhurtam (the muhurta ending ~45 min before sunrise)
  • Abhijit Muhurat (~48 min around solar noon)
  • Amrit Choghadiya
  • Shubh Choghadiya
  • Pradosh Kaal (sunset to 1.5 hours after)

Why Kakinada Panchangam Differs from Other Cities

All Telugu panchangam computations follow the same astronomical principles (Lahiri Ayanamsa, Swiss Ephemeris). However, daily-observance timings (Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Choghadiya, Abhijit Muhurat) depend on local sunrise — which varies by longitude.

Kakinada at longitude 82.247°E has sunrise approximately 15 minutes earlier than Hyderabad (78.486°E). The tithi, nakshatra, yoga, and karana for any given moment are identical across all of India (these are computed from the Sun-Moon astronomical relationship at any instant), but the Rahu Kalam and Choghadiya windows for Kakinada shift accordingly to track local sunrise.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is today's panchangam for Kakinada?
Today's Kakinada panchangam is on this page, at the top: tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise, sunset, moonrise, moonset, Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Gulika, Abhijit Muhurat and both choghadiya sets, computed for Kakinada's own coordinates (16.989°N, 82.247°E) with Lahiri Ayanamsa and rebuilt every morning. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are the same across India; the sunrise-derived windows are Kakinada's own, not Hyderabad's.
What is the difference between Kakinada panchangam and Hyderabad panchangam?
Kakinada panchangam differs from Hyderabad mainly in sunrise/sunset and Rahu Kalam timings. Each degree of longitude shifts sunrise by ~4 minutes — Kakinada at longitude 82.247°E vs Hyderabad at 78.486°E means sunrise differs by approximately 15 minutes. Tithi, nakshatra, and yoga are based on Sun-Moon astronomical positions and apply across all of India, but observance timings (Rahu Kalam start, Choghadiya windows) shift with local sunrise.
Which festivals are most observed in Kakinada?
Kakinada celebrates all standard Telugu festivals — Ugadi (Chaitra Shudda Padyami), Sri Rama Navami, Hanuman Jayanti, Krishna Janmashtami, Vinayaka Chavithi, Dussehra (Sharannavaratri), Karthika Pournami, and Maha Shivaratri. Local emphasis: Annavaram Satyanarayana Vrat (every Purnima): massive monthly observance. Drakshrarama Saptamahaganapathi processions. Pithapuram Shakti Peetha festivals.
Why does Andhra Pradesh follow a specific Telugu panchangam?

The nearby Annavaram Satyanarayana temple is one of South India's most popular Vrat pilgrimage destinations — Satyanarayana Vrat is performed here on most full moons (purnimas). Pithapuram is one of the 18 Maha Shakti Peethas (Puruhutika Devi).

Other City Panchangams

Important: The panchangam at the top of this page is computed for Sunday, 18 October 2026; the seasonal ranges in the table below it are typical values across the year, not today's. For another date, our daily panchangam computes for Hyderabad, so its sunrise-derived windows are offset from Kakinada's by the few minutes their sunrises differ. All Telugu panchangam guidance is provided for cultural and informational purposes; consult a qualified Vaidika or family priest for personalised ritual guidance.
