Frequently asked questions
Is the Telugu calendar amanta or purnimanta?
Amanta. A Telugu lunar month ends on Amavasya, and the new month begins the next day with Shukla Paksha Padyami. North Indian calendars are purnimanta, so the same Krishna Paksha carries the next month’s name there.
Why can a tithi differ in my city?
The tithi shown is the one prevailing at sunrise in Hyderabad. Sunrise differs from city to city, so when a tithi changes close to sunrise your city can show a different tithi that day. Open the Panchang for your city to check.
Why does a date sometimes repeat or skip a tithi?
A tithi can run from before one sunrise to after the next, so it shows on two days, or it can begin and end between two sunrises, so it shows on no day. Both are normal in the Hindu calendar.
