• Where these rules come from: the chudakarana rules of the muhurta texts as the largest computed mundan list applies them. That list was checked for New Delhi across 2026 and 2027, and every date it prints is on this page.
• Month: Chaitra, Vaishakha, Jyeshtha, Ashadha, Magha and Phalguna, counted new moon to new moon (amanta). Ashadha only until Devshayani Ekadashi begins (24 July 2026, 9:13 AM), when Chaturmas starts. Shravana, Bhadrapada, Ashwin, Kartika, Margashirsha and Pausha are closed, and so is any adhika month.
• Weekday: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday (the Vedic weekday, which changes at sunrise). Never Tuesday, Saturday or Sunday.
• Nakshatra: the Moon in one of these 10 — Ashwini, Mrigashira, Punarvasu, Pushya, Chitra, Swati, Jyeshtha, Shravana, Dhanishta and Shatabhisha.
• Tithi: Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Ekadashi, Trayodashi of either fortnight, and Purnima. Never Pratipada, Chaturthi, Shashti, Ashtami, Navami, Dwadashi, Chaturdashi or Amavasya.
• An adhika month is closed: Adhika Jyeshtha, an adhika month, runs from 17 May 2026 to 15 June 2026.
• Age — guidance, not computed: many families hold the first mundan in an odd year of the child's life (the first, third or fifth), and many follow a family or temple custom instead. Settle the year by custom; this list then gives the day.
• Jyeshtha: permitted, but many families avoid it for an eldest child, so Jyeshtha rows are marked. Some families also avoid Friday for a girl's mundan.
• Kharmas and asta: neither is a rule in the computed mundan list this page was checked against, so neither removes a date here. Dates inside Kharmas (16 December 2025 – 14 January 2026, 15 March 2026 – 14 April 2026 and 16 December 2026 – 14 January 2027) are marked, because many families wait for it to end.
• The day: sunrise to the next sunrise, for New Delhi. A day any closed period touches is left out whole; inside the days that remain, the muhurat is the time when every condition above holds at once, for at least 20 minutes.
• Not checked here: the child's own chart — Chandra bala and Tara bala from the birth nakshatra — and the lagna. A priest checks these against the child's birth details.
