What is a mundan muhurat?
Mundan (Chudakarana) is the child’s first head-shave, one of the sixteen samskaras, usually in the first, third or fifth year for a boy and an even year for a girl.
Also searched as: chudakarana muhurat, mundan sanskar dates, first haircut muhurat.
How a mundan date is chosen
- Nakshatra: Ashwini, Mrigashira, Punarvasu, Pushya, Hasta, Chitra, Swati, Jyeshtha, Shravana, Dhanishtha, Shatabhisha or Revati.
- Tithi: Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Ekadashi or Trayodashi of either paksha.
- Weekday: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday; daytime only.
- Solar month: Makara, Kumbha, Mesha, Vrishabha or Mithuna (mid-January to mid-July, except Meena).
- Not while Guru or Shukra is set, in an adhika masa, on Sankranti or an eclipse day.
Before you fix the date
- Many families do mundan at a temple such as Tirumala, Vindhyachal or the family deity’s shrine.
- The age rule (by birth or conception) matters as much as the date — ask your pandit.
- Check Rahu Kalam and the day’s panchang for your city before the exact time.
Frequently asked questions
How many mundan muhurats are there in the coming months?
20 days, the most in May 2027. 8 months have none.
How are these mundan dates calculated?
From the positions of the Sun and Moon for each day (Lahiri ayanamsa), applying the rules of Muhurta Chintamani: nakshatra: ashwini, mrigashira, punarvasu, pushya, hasta, chitra, swati, jyeshtha, shravana, dhanishtha, shatabhisha or revati, and the other conditions listed on this page. Our calculation uses the same engine as our panchang, which matches Drik Panchang to the minute.
Do the timings change with my city?
Slightly. A muhurat starts or ends when the tithi or nakshatra changes, which happens at the same moment everywhere, or at sunrise, which differs by city. Times here are IST for New Delhi; check the sunrise for your city on our Panchang and your pandit will confirm.
Is a date enough, or do I need a lagna too?
These are panchang shuddhi dates — the day and window are clean. For marriage, griha pravesh and upanayanam the pandit also picks a lagna (rising sign) inside the window that suits the family’s horoscopes.
Can Rutviju send a pandit for Mundan Ceremony on the muhurat?
Yes. Book Mundan Ceremony for the date and time; a verified pandit comes to your home with the vidhi and samagri list, at the price shown before you pay. You can also ask us on WhatsApp.
