Mundan Muhurat 2026
Mundan (chudakarana) is usually done in the first, third, or fifth year, avoiding Chaturmas and Kharmas, on a favourable tithi and nakshatra.
Panchang Factors
For mundan muhurat, check tithi, nakshatra, weekday, sunrise, sunset, Rahu Kaal, Choghadiya, and local tradition.
Tithi can help narrow auspicious dates, while local timing helps avoid periods that are not ideal for beginning important work.
Mundan Muhurat 2026: Panchang Shortlist
7 days in 2026 pass the panchang filters below at sunrise in Delhi. Treat this as a shortlist to discuss with your priest, not a final muhurat: lagna, Jupiter and Venus visibility, and family or birth-chart considerations still apply.
- Nakshatra at sunrise is one of movable, swift and soft nakshatras.
- Tithi at sunrise is not a Rikta tithi (Chaturthi, Navami, Chaturdashi), Ashtami, or Amavasya.
- Tuesday and Saturday are skipped.
- Kharmas (Sun in Dhanu or Meena) is excluded.
- Chaturmas (Devshayani to Devutthana Ekadashi) is excluded.
- Adhika (leap) lunar months are excluded.
