Tithi and nakshatram computed for Tirunelveli. Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Kuligai, Nalla Neram and Soolam as Tamil calendars print them. Minute times are under Your day.

Shastra's reading

For anything new, 6.07 am to 8.29 am is the best of the day.

Daily archanai and worship need no muhurtham. For anything important, your family's jyotishi comes first.
