Chaitra Amavasya 2026: Date, Muhurat, and Why Ancestor Rituals are a Day Early
•
Chaitra Amavasya 2026 falls on Thursday, March 19.
•
Ancestor Tarpan and Shraddh rituals will be performed a day earlier, on Wednesday, March 18 (Darsh Amavasya).
•
This is because the Amavasya Tithi on March 19 ends early at 6:52 AM, making the traditional Shraddh time (11:30 AM - 2:30 PM) fall on March 18.
•
The Tithi begins March 18 at 8:25 AM and concludes March 19 at 6:52 AM; Udayatithi for Chaitra Amavasya is March 19.
