Shastra's reading

For anything new, 12.27 pm to 3.10 pm is the best of the day.

This day and the next

Sankatahara Chaturthi, Ganesha worship; the fast ends at moonrise.

Observance days as Tamil calendars keep them, set by Surat's own sunrise, sunset and moonrise.

Full panchangam

For rituals and muhurtham, computed for Surat by modern astronomical calculation (Drik, Lahiri). A caution's start is rounded down and its end up; a good window's start up and its end down. Underlined words open their meaning.
