About ShubhPanchang

ShubhPanchang is a free, accurate Gujarati Hindu Panchang platform. Our goal: give every Gujarati family — in India and the diaspora — instant access to reliable Panchang data with no ads blocking the information, no slow loading, and no confusing layouts.

How We Calculate Panchang

🔭
Drik Ganita Method
We use observational (empirical) astronomy — the same method used by drikpanchang.com and most modern Panchang publishers. This is more accurate than the older Surya Siddhanta method.
📐
Lahiri Ayanamsa
We apply the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa to convert tropical to sidereal positions. This is the standard for Vedic astrology and matches drikpanchang.com exactly.
🌍
Location-based Calculation
Sunrise, sunset, Rahu Kaal, and Choghadiya are calculated for each city's exact latitude and longitude. A Panchang for Ahmedabad will differ slightly from Surat — and we compute both correctly.
✅
Amanta Tradition
We follow the Amanta calendar tradition (month ends on Amavasya), which is the Gujarati standard. North Indian Purnimanta tradition (month ends on Purnima) is different — we do not mix the two.

✓ Daily Validation

Every night, our automated system compares our Panchang output against external sources for 5 Gujarat cities. If any Tithi or Nakshatra mismatch is found, an alert is triggered and we investigate before the next day's data is published.

Technology
