Shubh muhurat is not one fixed hour of the clock. It is whichever window in today's Choghadiya, Abhijit and Brahma Muhurat is open, measured from Goa's own sunrise — so it moves every day and is different in every city.
Every auspicious window of this Vedic day, from sunrise 6:28 AM to tomorrow's. Amrit is read as the strongest, Shubh next, Labh for work and earnings; Abhijit is the midday muhurta that needs no other agreement from the panchang.
All times are local to Goa, computed for Asia/Kolkata (UTC+05:30). Goa is a state, so these times are computed for its capital, Panaji. Anywhere else in Goa they differ by about two minutes at most.
| Period | Time | Nature | Traditionally read as |
|---|---|---|---|
| Amrit | 6:29 AM - 7:56 AM | Most Auspicious | A strong general-purpose period for important work and new beginnings. |
| Shubh | 9:24 AM - 10:51 AM | Auspicious | A supportive period for considered starts, agreements and ceremonies. |
| Abhijit Muhurat | 11:55 AM - 12:42 PM | Auspicious | A broadly favourable midday window for important work when a detailed muhurta is unavailable. |
| Labh | 3:13 PM - 4:41 PM | Auspicious | Often used for business, earnings and practical progress. |
| Amrit | 4:41 PM - 6:08 PM | Most Auspicious | A strong general-purpose period for important work and new beginnings. |
| Labh | 10:46 PM - 12:19 AM | Auspicious | Often used for business, earnings and practical progress. |
| Shubh | 1:51 AM - 3:24 AM | Auspicious | A supportive period for considered starts, agreements and ceremonies. |
| Amrit | 3:24 AM - 4:57 AM | Most Auspicious | A strong general-purpose period for important work and new beginnings. |
Worship is the one use with its own preferred windows rather than the general list. Brahma Muhurat before dawn is the traditional time for japa, path and meditation; Abhijit carries a midday puja when no other muhurta is clear; Amrit and Shubh Choghadiya are the windows used for a ceremony with a sankalp.
| Period | Time | Nature | Traditionally read as |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brahma Muhurat | 4:50 AM - 5:39 AM | Auspicious | The night's fourteenth muhurta, ending one muhurta before sunrise — japa, path, study and meditation. |
| Amrit | 6:29 AM - 7:56 AM | Most Auspicious | A strong general-purpose period for important work and new beginnings. |
| Shubh | 9:24 AM - 10:51 AM | Auspicious | A supportive period for considered starts, agreements and ceremonies. |
| Abhijit Muhurat | 11:55 AM - 12:42 PM | Auspicious | A broadly favourable midday window for important work when a detailed muhurta is unavailable. |
| Amrit | 4:41 PM - 6:08 PM | Most Auspicious | A strong general-purpose period for important work and new beginnings. |
| Shubh | 1:51 AM - 3:24 AM | Auspicious | A supportive period for considered starts, agreements and ceremonies. |
| Amrit | 3:24 AM - 4:57 AM | Most Auspicious | A strong general-purpose period for important work and new beginnings. |
A puja already under way is not stopped by Rahu Kaal — the rule is about beginning, not about continuing. Only the sankalp, the lighting of the lamp and the first offering are timed.
The same daylight span that produces the good windows produces these. Each is one eighth of the day between sunrise and sunset, fixed by the weekday, so all three move with sunrise and are different in every city.
| Period | Time | Nature | Traditionally read as |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rahu Kaal | 7:56 AM - 9:24 AM | Inauspicious | Avoid beginning important work. Work already under way can continue. |
| Yamaganda Kaal | 10:51 AM - 12:19 PM | Inauspicious | Usually avoided for journeys, ceremonies and important new starts. |
| Gulika Kaal | 1:46 PM - 3:13 PM | Mixed | Use extra care with new commitments; traditions treat this as a caution period. |
The two windows that are not part of the Choghadiya cycle. Brahma Muhurat is the fourteenth of the night's fifteen muhurtas, ending one muhurta before sunrise; Abhijit is the eighth of the fifteen equal muhurtas between sunrise and sunset, and classical practice gives Wednesday none.

- Against New Delhi. Sunrise in Goa today is at 6:29 AM, the same minute as New Delhi; sunset is at 6:08 PM, 27 minutes later than New Delhi (5:41 PM). Longitude: Goa lies 3.4° west of Delhi, so local noon comes 14 minutes later (12:19 PM against 12:05 PM). Latitude: Goa lies 13.1° south of Delhi, and from the September equinox to the March one, days run longer the further south you go; today's daylight here is 27 minutes longer (11 hours 39 minutes against 11 hours 13 minutes), which pulls sunrise earlier and pushes sunset later by about 14 minutes each. A Delhi table would put Abhijit and the day's other muhurtas 0–27 minutes too early here today; use this page's own times.
- How long Abhijit lasts. Abhijit Muhurat is a fifteenth of the daylight: 47 minutes today, and from 45 minutes to 52 minutes through 2026.
- Local noon. Midway between sunrise and sunset, Goa's noon falls at 12:19 PM today, 19 minutes after 12:00 on the clock. Goa lies 8.7° west of the 82.5° E meridian its clock keeps, which makes noon 35 minutes late; the time of year (the equation of time) takes off 16 minutes today. Abhijit Muhurat is centred on this moment, not on twelve o'clock.
- Day length. Goa has 11 hours 39 minutes of daylight today, against 11 hours 45 minutes a week ago and 11 hours 34 minutes a week from now: the days here are getting shorter by about 5 minutes a week, and will until the shortest day, around 21 December. In 2026 the longest day is 13 hours 3 minutes (around 20 June) and the shortest 11 hours 13 minutes (around 21 December), a swing of 1 hour 50 minutes, less than New Delhi's 3 hours 39 minutes.
- The year's extremes. The earliest sunrise of 2026 is 6:03 AM (around 2 June) and the latest 7:05 AM (around 21 January); the earliest sunset is 6:01 PM (around 22 November) and the latest 7:10 PM (around 8 July). None falls on a solstice: the Sun's clock time drifts through the year, so the latest mornings come weeks after the shortest day.
- The overhead Sun. Goa lies 15.5° north of the equator, south of the Tropic of Cancer, so the noon Sun stands directly overhead twice a year: around 2 May and 10 August in 2026. On those two days an upright pole casts almost no shadow at local noon.
- The calendar here. Goa counts its lunar months from new moon to new moon (amanta), so today is Ashwin Purnima.
- Nearest cities. Kolhapur (142 km north) — sunrise 1 minute earlier; Mangaluru (308 km south) — sunrise 7 minutes earlier.

Sunrise and sunset come from the Swiss Ephemeris for this city's coordinates and this date. The daylight is divided into the eight Choghadiya of the day and the night into eight more; the fifteen muhurtas give Abhijit; the eighth parts fixed by weekday give Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika. This page then names the auspicious window that is running, or the next one to open, and marks it if it collides with Rahu Kaal or Yamaganda.
The full sixteen-row Choghadiya table for Goa is on its own page, and this one does not repeat it: Choghadiya is the table, this is the reading of it.
Muhurat dates for a ceremony or a purchase

Shubh muhurat today: common questions
What is the best time today in Goa?
Labh Choghadiya is running now, 10:46 PM - 12:19 AM.
What is the shubh muhurat for pooja today in Goa?
Today's worship windows are Brahma Muhurat 4:50 AM - 5:39 AM, Amrit Choghadiya 6:29 AM - 7:56 AM, Shubh Choghadiya 9:24 AM - 10:51 AM. The sankalp, the lamp and the first offering are what get timed; the rest of the puja simply continues.
Which times should be avoided today in Goa?
Rahu Kaal 7:56 AM - 9:24 AM, Yamaganda Kaal 10:51 AM - 12:19 PM, Gulika Kaal 1:46 PM - 3:13 PM. The rule is about beginning something new — work already under way continues through all three.
How many auspicious muhurats are there today in Goa?
8 in this Vedic day. The first four are Amrit Choghadiya 6:29 AM - 7:56 AM, Shubh Choghadiya 9:24 AM - 10:51 AM, Abhijit Muhurat 11:55 AM - 12:42 PM, Labh Choghadiya 3:13 PM - 4:41 PM.
What is the Brahma Muhurat time today in Goa?
4:50 AM - 5:39 AM — the night's fourteenth muhurta, ending one muhurta before this city's sunrise.
What is the Abhijit Muhurat time today in Goa?
11:55 AM - 12:42 PM. It is the eighth of fifteen equal muhurtas between sunrise and sunset, and it is treated as auspicious without needing agreement from the rest of the panchang.
Why is the shubh muhurat different in every city?
Because every window is measured from local sunrise, and India keeps one clock across about thirty degrees of longitude. Delhi and Chennai are never in the same Choghadiya at the same minute.
Delhi and every major city on one page: Shubh Muhurat today.
A good time is a property of a place, because sunrise is. A window computed for Delhi is wrong in Chennai by a meaningful margin, and wrong in the same direction all year.
