Gujarati date on 16 January 2026

On 16 January 2026 in the Gujarati Calendar (Vikram Samvat), the date is Posh Vad Teras, Vikram Samvat 2082 (પોષ વદ તેરસ), for Ahmedabad, Gujarat.

The Gujarati calendar is a lunisolar (amanta) calendar that follows the Vikram Samvat era. Its year begins with Kartak, on Bestu Varas, the day after Diwali, instead of in spring. So its month order differs from most other regional calendars. Each month ends on the new moon and has a waxing Shukla and a waning Krishna fortnight.

See the whole month in the Gujarati Panchang monthly calendar, or compare the eras and new-year dates of every Indian calendar on Calendars of India.

About Gujarati Panchang

The Gujarati Panchang for 16 January 2026 lists the day's five limbs: tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara. Sunrise, sunset, moonrise and moonset are worked out for the exact coordinates and timezone of the city shown above. It uses the true Drik Ganita method, so tithi and nakshatra change times match the sky, not a fixed almanac.

Use the auspicious windows (Brahma Muhurta, Abhijit and Amrit Kalam) to time important work, and hold off during Rahu Kaal, Yamagandam and Gulika Kalam. The day's festivals and vrats, Tarabalam and Chandrabalam, Anandadi & Tamil Yoga and the Nivas & Shool directions are all shown above.
