Kshaya: Kshaya (skipped) tithi: it begins after one sunrise and ends before the next, so no day is named after it
(2) Vriddhi (repeated) tithi: the same tithi prevails at two sunrises, so two days carry its name
(…) Also kept on this day (the sunrise-tithi day, or the date of a Government of India list)

Each day shows the tithi (with paksha) and nakshatra at local sunrise, festivals and vrats, and markers for Sankranti (Sank.), Panchak (Pnk.) and Bhadra (Bhd.) during that Hindu day.

How these dates are calculated

Tithi and nakshatra are those prevailing at local sunrise (udaya). Lunar months are named in the Purnimanta system of your calculation profile. Panchak and Bhadra markers mean the period occurs at some time during that Hindu day (sunrise to next sunrise); open a day for exact times.

Traditions may vary by region and Panchang convention. Times are shown for the selected place, time zone and calculation profile.
