Please note: This is panchang purity only, not a complete muhurat. A shubh muhurat also weighs lagna purity, chandra–tara bala from your birth sign, and rules for the specific event (wedding, griha pravesh and so on). If you are not versed in jyotish, consult your pandit or purohit before any important work, and use this panchang check together with their guidance to fix a pure and auspicious muhurat.
