May 2030About the Assamese Calendar
The Assamese calendar is a solar (sidereal) calendar whose twelve months each begin as the Sun enters a new zodiac sign. The year opens with Bohag on Bohag Bihu (Rongali Bihu), the Assamese New Year. Each month runs from about the middle of one Gregorian month to the middle of the next.
This monthly Assamese Panjika lists the daily tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana with sunrise, sunset, Rahu Kalam and the festivals and bihus of each day, computed from the true Drik Ganita panchang for your city. Select your city to see the precise timings, which depend on your local sunrise.
The 12 Months of the Assamese Calendar

The Five Limbs of the Panchangam
“Panchangam” means “five limbs” — the five elements calculated for every day. Together they decide the festivals, vrats and muhurats shown in this calendar.
The lunar day — one of 30 in a lunar month. Governs festivals, Ekadashi, Purnima and Amavasya.
The star (constellation) the Moon occupies — one of 27. Central to naming, muhurat and matching.
A Sun–Moon angular combination — one of 27. Some yogas are auspicious, some are avoided.
Half of a tithi — one of 11. Used to judge the quality of a portion of the day.
The weekday, each ruled by a planet — sets Rahu Kalam, Gulika and the day’s general nature.
Choosing Auspicious & Avoiding Inauspicious Times
Each day carries favourable and unfavourable windows. Traditionally one avoids Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam and Gulika for beginnings, and prefers Abhijit, Amrit Kalam and Brahma Muhurta. Open any day in the calendar to see these exact windows for your city.
Auspicious
- Abhijit Muhurat — The ~48-minute midday window, generally auspicious for new beginnings.
- Amrit Kalam — A nakshatra-based favourable period considered nectar-like for good work.
- Brahma Muhurta — The pre-dawn window (~96–48 min before sunrise), ideal for prayer and study.
Avoid
- Rahu Kalam — A ~90-minute daily inauspicious period ruled by Rahu — avoid starting new work.
- Yamagandam — A daily period ruled by Yama, also avoided for beginnings and travel.
- Gulika Kalam (Kuligai) — The period of Gulika (son of Saturn) — traditionally avoided for auspicious acts.
Frequently Asked Questions
A Assamese monthly Panchangam is a calendar for the whole month that shows, for every day, the five limbs of the panchang — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (star), yoga, karana and vaara (weekday) — along with sunrise, sunset, Rahu Kalam and the festivals and vrats that fall in the month. It follows the Assamese Calendar and is computed from the true Drik Ganita panchang.
Each day in the grid shows the Assamese date, the tithi and nakshatra active at sunrise, and markers for festivals, Ekadashi, Pradosham, Purnima and Amavasya. Tap any day to open its full panchang — tithi and nakshatra end-times, yoga, karana, Rahu Kalam and the auspicious muhurats — for your selected city.
The twelve months are Bohag, Jeth, Ahar, Xaon, Bhado, Ahin, Kati, Aghon, Puh, Magh, Fagun, Sot. The Assamese Calendar is a solar (sidereal) calendar, and the year begins with Bohag Bihu — 1st of Bohag (mid-April).
The panchang is calculated from the local sunrise and sunset, and tithi and nakshatra are measured against them. Because sunrise happens at a different clock time in each city, the day’s tithi at sunrise, Rahu Kalam and the muhurats shift slightly from one place to another. That is why you should always select your own city.
Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam and Gulika Kalam (Kuligai) are the inauspicious daily periods traditionally avoided for starting new or auspicious work. Abhijit Muhurat, Amrit Kalam and Brahma Muhurta are considered favourable. Every day cell links to these exact windows for your city.
