- Computed from the Moon and the Sun for New Delhi at the moment you loaded this page — not copied from a printed calendar.
- Each tithi's own start and end is shown, so you can check the day yourself.
Times are local to New Delhi. The Note column says when the usual rule did not settle the day on its own — a tithi that met its deciding moment on two days, or on none — and which day this page took.
Sankashti Chaturthi is the Chaturthi of Krishna paksha, and it is decided at moonrise: the fast ends when the Moon is seen, so the day is the one whose moonrise falls inside Chaturthi. Moonrise moves by well over an hour across India — far more than sunrise does — which is why the moonrise time, the number the fast actually turns on, is printed for the city you choose. When Chaturthi is running at moonrise on two evenings, the first is kept; when it touches neither moonrise, the fast is kept on the day Chaturthi is running at sunrise. A Sankashti on a Tuesday is Angaraki Chaturthi. The Magha one is Sakat Chauth and the Kartika one is Karwa Chauth, both in the purnimanta reckoning of North India.

What time is moonrise on Sankashti Chaturthi?
The moonrise for New Delhi is against every Sankashti in the table. The fast is broken after sighting the Moon and offering arghya, and moonrise moves by more than an hour between Indian cities — switch city above to see yours.
Is Sankashti Chaturthi on the same day everywhere in India?
Not always. The day is decided at sunrise, sunset or moonrise, and all three move with the city, so New Delhi and a city far to the west or east can disagree about the day itself. Switch city above and the whole table is recomputed.
