Timings shown for New Delhi (IST) at sunrise - use the city box at the top to change it. Solar months begin by each tradition's own Sankranti rule (same-day, next-day, sunset or aparahna). Era years and lunar month names follow standard Vedic calculations and may differ slightly from regional almanacs around an Adhik Maas.

Beyond the dates the Gujarati Panchang lists, 2013 brought 5 eclipses - 2 solar and 3 lunar - of which 2 were above the horizon somewhere in India. Bhogi / Lohri fell on 13 January, 1 day earlier in the year than in 2012 - a lunar year runs about eleven days short of a solar one.
Eclipses of 2013
| Date (IST) | Eclipse | Gujarati date | Seen from India |
|---|---|---|---|

Frequently asked questions about the Gujarati Panchang 2013
How many festivals and vrats does the Gujarati Panchang list in 2013?
The Gujarati Panchang lists 261 dates in 2013, of which 212 are vrats. The first is Sankashti Chaturthi on Tuesday, 1 January 2013, and the last is Masik Shivaratri on Tuesday, 31 December 2013.
What are the main festival dates in the Gujarati Panchang for 2013?
The first major observances of 2013 are:
- Bhogi / Lohri - Sunday, 13 January 2013
- Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Monday, 14 January 2013
- Vasant Panchami - Thursday, 14 February 2013
- Bhishma Ashtami - Monday, 18 February 2013
- Maha Shivaratri - Sunday, 10 March 2013
- Holika Dahan - Tuesday, 26 March 2013
Which month of 2013 has the most observances in the Gujarati Panchang?
November 2013 is the fullest month with 27 dates, including Dhanteras, Kali Chaudas, Masik Shivaratri, Narak Chaturdashi (Abhyang Snan), Anvadhan, Darsha Amavasya, Diwali (Lakshmi Puja), Bali Pratipada (Diwali Padwa / Bestu Varas).
Which traditional year does 2013 correspond to in the Gujarati Panchang?
The Gregorian year 2013 spans Gujarati Samvat 2068 – 2069. The traditional year does not begin on 1 January, so one Gregorian year usually covers the end of one era year and the start of the next.
Did 2013 have an Adhik Maas?
No. 2013 had twelve lunar months with no Adhik Maas, so its festival dates fall in their usual Gregorian window rather than being pushed later by an intercalary month.
Were there any eclipses in 2013?
2013 had 5 eclipses:
- 26 April 2013 - Partial lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 10 May 2013 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 25 May 2013 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
- 19 October 2013 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), penumbral only, so no Sutak was observed
- 3 November 2013 - Partial solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
Sutak Kaal is observed only for an eclipse actually visible where you are, so 1 of these was kept in India.
Did Guru or Shani change sign in 2013?
Yes - 1 sign change among the slow grahas in 2013:
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Mithuna on 31 May 2013
Jupiter takes about a year to cross one sign and Saturn about two and a half, so these transits colour the whole year rather than a single week.
How do I see the tithi and nakshatra for a specific date in 2013?
Use the month grid above: pick a month from the selector, then tap any day to open its full panchang - tithi with start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Set your city in the box at the top first, because these timings are sunrise-based and shift with location. The Gujarati Panchang opens on the current month.
About the Gujarati Panchang
The Gujarati Panchang (Vikram Samvat with the Kartika new year). Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and festivals, with the Samvat year and the Amanta month.
Each day lists its tithi and paksha, the nakshatra, the weekday (vaar) and any festivals or vrats. Tap any day to see the full panchang for that date - tithi start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Use the month and year selectors to browse any year in the archive or plan ahead into the coming years.
This calendar names the tithi and festivals for each day. For sunrise, Rahu Kalam and muhurat windows on a chosen date, open the Panchang. Other regional calendars are on the Calendars index. Fast stories live under Vrat Katha.
