Purohit bookings in Mumbai are coming soon.
The panchang below is calculated for Mumbai’s own sunrise and sky. Today we arrange Purohits in Bengaluru and Mysuru; talk to a Pandit if you need one elsewhere.
Inauspicious windows are always shown with their reason rather than removed — booking slots inside them are disabled, not hidden.
Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam and Gulika are the day divided into eight equal parts between sunrise and sunset — so they move with the sky over Mumbai, not with a national timetable. Today that day runs 06:26 to 18:46 here, which is what places Rahu Kalam at 11:04—12:36. A city an hour's longitude away gets a different answer on the same date.
These are computed windows, offered so you can plan around them. Traditions differ on how much weight each carries, and your own Purohit's reckoning for your family is the one that decides the day.
Worked out for the next 60 days from Mumbai's own nakshatra, tithi and Rahu Kalam. Only dates the calculation actually rates highest appear — a ceremony with none in this window is simply not listed. These are the dates themselves; we don't yet perform ceremonies at home in Mumbai.

A calculation, not a ruling. Family tradition, the participants' own nakshatras and the Purohit's judgement all sit above it — bring a date to him rather than treating one as settled.
We perform ceremonies at home in Bengaluru and Mysuru today, so we can’t promise you a Purohit in Mumbai yet. The panchang above is still Mumbai's own, and a Pandit can talk a date through with you online.
