Chennai panchang in simple words
On 3 December 2026, the sun rises in Chennai at 06:16 AM and sets at 05:41 PM. At sunrise the tithi is Krishna Dashami, which lasts till 11:03 PM, after which Ekadashi begins. The Moon is in Uttara Phalguni nakshatra (till 09:23 AM) and in Kanya rashi.
Rahu Kaal runs from 01:24 PM to 02:50 PM, so it is best not to start new work in this window. For anything important, Abhijit Muhurat from 11:36 AM to 12:21 PM is a good time. The Hindu month is Margashirsha (Purnimanta) and the year is Vikram Samvat 2083.
