What is Panchang? (पंचांग)

Panchang is the Hindu calendar followed by Vedic astrology, which provides complete detail on each day's Tithis and auspicious and inauspicious timings. Today's Panchang on PayOS is based on Vijay Vishwa Panchang, which is the rarest of Panchang, used by Astrologers for hundreds of years. Through Daily Panchang, you can get all the information about the time, date, and day to determine the Muhurat for everything.

The five elements of Panchang are Tithi (lunar day), Nakshatra (lunar mansion), Yoga (a luni-solar day), Karana (half of a Tithi), and Vaara (weekday). Together these five elements help determine the most auspicious timings for rituals, ceremonies, and new beginnings.
