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.

Telugu Panchangam 1983 - festivals and vrats through the year

The Telugu Panchangam lists 263 dates in 1983, opening with Kalashtami on 6 January and closing with Shani Pradosh Vrat on 31 December. Of these, 214 are vrats (fasting observances).

The year runs through Shaka Samvat 1904 – 1905. 1983 carries an Adhik Maas (Phalguna (Adhik)), the extra lunar month that pushes several festivals later than usual.

What happened in the sky in 1983

Beyond the dates the Telugu Panchangam lists, 1983 brought 4 eclipses - 2 solar and 2 lunar - of which 2 were above the horizon somewhere in India. The year also carried an Adhik Maas, the extra lunar month of Phalguna, running from 13 February 1983 to 14 March 1983. Vasant Panchami fell on 19 January, 10 days earlier in the year than in 1982 - a lunar year runs about eleven days short of a solar one.

Frequently asked questions about the Telugu Panchangam 1983

How many festivals and vrats does the Telugu Panchangam list in 1983?

The Telugu Panchangam lists 263 dates in 1983, of which 214 are vrats. The first is Kalashtami on Thursday, 6 January 1983, and the last is Shani Pradosh Vrat on Saturday, 31 December 1983.

What are the main festival dates in the Telugu Panchangam for 1983?

The first major observances of 1983 are:

  • Bhogi / Lohri - Thursday, 13 January 1983
  • Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Friday, 14 January 1983
  • Vasant Panchami - Wednesday, 19 January 1983
  • Ratha Saptami - Friday, 21 January 1983
  • Bhishma Ashtami - Saturday, 22 January 1983
  • Maha Shivaratri - Friday, 11 February 1983
Which month of 1983 has the most observances in the Telugu Panchangam?

November 1983 is the fullest month with 25 dates, including Rama Ekadashi, Dhanteras, Masik Shivaratri, Anvadhan, Darsha Amavasya, Diwali (Lakshmi Puja), Narak Chaturdashi (Abhyang Snan), Ishti.

Which traditional year does 1983 correspond to in the Telugu Panchangam?

The Gregorian year 1983 spans Shaka Samvat 1904 – 1905. 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 1983 have an Adhik Maas?

Yes. 1983 carried an Adhik Maas (Phalguna (Adhik)), the extra lunar month inserted roughly every third year to keep the lunar calendar in step with the solar one. Festivals falling after it shift later in the Gregorian year, which is why 1983 dates can look out of place beside a neighbouring year.

Were there any eclipses in 1983?

1983 had 4 eclipses:

  • 11 June 1983 - Total solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
  • 25 June 1983 - Partial lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
  • 4 December 1983 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
  • 20 December 1983 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), penumbral only, so no Sutak was observed

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 1983?

Yes - 1 sign change among the slow grahas in 1983:

  • Guru (Jupiter) entered Dhanu on 22 December 1983

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 1983?

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.
