Frequently asked questions about the Telugu Panchangam 1949

How many festivals and vrats does the Telugu Panchangam list in 1949?

The Telugu Panchangam lists 266 dates in 1949, of which 214 are vrats. The first is Vinayaka Chaturthi on Monday, 3 January 1949, and the last is Vaikunta Ekadashi on Saturday, 31 December 1949.

What are the main festival dates in the Telugu Panchangam for 1949?

The first major observances of 1949 are:

  • Vaikunta Ekadashi - Tuesday, 11 January 1949
  • Bhogi / Lohri - Thursday, 13 January 1949
  • Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Friday, 14 January 1949
  • Thaipusam - Saturday, 15 January 1949
  • Vasant Panchami - Thursday, 3 February 1949
  • Ratha Saptami - Saturday, 5 February 1949
Which month of 1949 has the most observances in the Telugu Panchangam?

August 1949 is the fullest month with 25 dates, including Shravana Putrada Ekadashi, Varalakshmi Vratham, Shani Pradosh Vrat, Anvadhan, Avani Avittam (Upakarma), Gayatri Jayanti, Raksha Bandhan, Shravana Purnima Vrat.

Which traditional year does 1949 correspond to in the Telugu Panchangam?

The Gregorian year 1949 spans Shaka Samvat 1870 – 1871. 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 1949 have an Adhik Maas?

No. 1949 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 1949?

1949 had 4 eclipses:

  • 13 April 1949 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
  • 28 April 1949 - Partial solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
  • 7 October 1949 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
  • 22 October 1949 - 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 1949?

Yes - 3 sign changes among the slow grahas in 1949:

  • Guru (Jupiter) entered Makara on 28 February 1949
  • Guru (Jupiter) entered Dhanu on 27 August 1949, moving retrograde
  • Guru (Jupiter) entered Makara on 11 October 1949

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 1949?

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 Telugu Panchangam opens on the current month.

About the Telugu Panchangam

The Telugu Panchangam (Shalivahana Shaka, Ugadi new year). Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and festivals, with the Shaka 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.
