Frequently asked questions
What is the tithi in Vijayawada on 13 August 2026?
On 13 August 2026 the tithi in Vijayawada is Shukla Pratipada, prevailing at sunrise and ending at 8:37 PM IST. The nakshatra is Ashlesha (pada 4) until 6:07 AM IST.
When is Rahu Kaal in Vijayawada on 13 August 2026?
Rahu Kaal in Vijayawada on 13 August 2026 runs 1:47 PM to 3:22 PM IST. Yamaganda (5:52 AM–7:27 AM) and Gulika (9:02 AM–10:37 AM) are also inauspicious — avoid starting new work in all three. They are computed from Vijayawada's actual sunrise, not a fixed national table.
What is the shubh muhurat in Vijayawada on 13 August 2026?
The universally auspicious Abhijit Muhurat runs 11:47 AM–12:38 PM IST. The choghadiya table above marks every Amrit and Shubh slot through the day and night — those are the best windows to begin work.
Why does Vijayawada's panchang differ from other cities?
Tithis, nakshatras and yogas are moments in time, but Rahu Kaal, choghadiya and Abhijit are derived from local sunrise and sunset, so they shift with longitude and latitude. Bela computes each city from its own coordinates (16.5074°N, 80.6466°E) — never a national average.
How is the "Is today good for…?" score computed?
Bela's engine scans all 16 choghadiya windows of the day for each activity and scores the best one by classical muhurta rules: Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Durmuhurtam, Panchaka, nakshatra suitability, tithi and yoga. The 0–100 score is that window's strength — personal Tara Bala vs your birth star is an app feature.
