Jaipur Panchang October 21, 2026 places Ashwina Shukla Dashami at sunrise on Wednesday, with Ekadashi beginning at about 2:11 p.m. India Standard Time, according to two Jaipur-specific calendar listings. Drik Panchang lists Bengal Vijayadashami, Mysore Dasara, Vidyarambham and Madhvacharya Jayanti for the date. Panchang calculations describe religious calendar customs, not scientifically established auspicious or inauspicious effects.
Key points
- Jaipur’s October 21 Panchang places Shukla Dashami at sunrise and Ekadashi from about 2:11 p.m. IST (2:12 p.m. on Panchang.live).
- Both listings put sunrise at 6:30 a.m. and sunset at 5:53 p.m., with Dhanishta nakshatra giving way to Shatabhisha at about 7:48 p.m.
- Rahu Kaal falls from 12:11 p.m. to 1:37 p.m., and neither listing gives an Abhijit Muhurat for this Wednesday.
What the Jaipur calendar says
Drik Panchang’s Jaipur page for Wednesday, October 21, lists sunrise at 6:30 a.m. and sunset at 5:53 p.m. IST. Moonrise is listed at 2:59 p.m. and moonset at 2:26 a.m. on October 22. The tithi is Shukla Paksha Dashami until 2:11 p.m., followed by Ekadashi. Dhanishta nakshatra runs until 7:48 p.m., followed by Shatabhisha, and Ganda yoga continues until 12:33 a.m. on October 22, followed by Vriddhi. Garaja karana lasts until 2:11 p.m., followed by Vanija until 2:35 a.m. on October 22. The lunar month is Ashwina in both the Amanta and Purnimanta systems. Drik Panchang gives Vikram Samvat 2083 (Siddharthi) and Shaka Samvat 1948 (Parabhava), with the Moon moving from Makara into Kumbha at 7:00 a.m. and the Sun in Tula.
Panchang.live’s Jaipur entry gives matching sunrise and sunset times and a day length of 11 hours 23 minutes. Its tithi and karana change at 2:12 p.m., one minute later than Drik Panchang’s, and it lists the Dhanishta-to-Shatabhisha change at 7:48 p.m. and Ganda yoga ending at 12:33 a.m. Its moonrise and moonset times (2:55 p.m. and 2:30 a.m.) differ by a few minutes from Drik Panchang’s. Small differences in rounded times can arise from calculation choices.
Rahu Kaal and other daily periods
For readers who follow traditional muhurat tables, the Jaipur listings place the following periods on October 21 (times in IST):
- Rahu Kaal: 12:11 p.m. to 1:37 p.m.
- Yamaganda: 7:55 a.m. to 9:20 a.m.
- Gulika Kaal: 10:46 a.m. to 12:11 p.m.
- Abhijit Muhurat: none listed (Panchang.live notes it is not observed on Wednesday)
- Brahma Muhurat: 4:49 a.m. to 5:39 a.m. (Drik Panchang)
- Dur Muhurtam: 11:48 a.m. to 12:34 p.m. (Drik Panchang)
- Amrit Kalam: 8:38 a.m. to 10:21 a.m. (Drik Panchang)
- Vijaya Muhurat: 2:05 p.m. to 2:51 p.m. (Drik Panchang)
- Godhuli Muhurat: 5:53 p.m. to 6:18 p.m. (Drik Panchang)
Panchang.live’s day Choghadiya begins with Labh (6:30 a.m. to 7:55 a.m.) and Amrit (7:55 a.m. to 9:20 a.m.), and ends with Labh from 4:28 p.m. to 5:53 p.m. Some families use these intervals as religious scheduling guidance. No empirical scientific evidence establishes that they cause success or failure in everyday activities.
Bengal Vijayadashami and other observances
Drik Panchang’s Jaipur Vijayadashami page lists Dashami tithi from 12:50 p.m. on October 20 to 2:11 p.m. on October 21, and gives October 20 as Vijayadashami for Jaipur. Drik Panchang explains that most states mark the festival when a suitable tithi and nakshatra combination falls in the afternoon, while West Bengal follows the Dashami tithi alone, which is why Bengal Vijayadashami appears on October 21. Its daily page also lists Mysore Dasara, Vidyarambham Day, Madhvacharya Jayanti, Kashi Bharat Milap and the 29th day of the third Chaturmasa month, and shows Durga Puja running from October 16 to 21. Panchang.live’s daily page did not list festivals for the date. Readers can confirm local observances with their temple or family calendar.
Why it matters
October 21 closes the Durga Puja period for Bengal-tradition households and community pandals, and the afternoon change from Dashami to Ekadashi matters to families who time rituals by tithi rather than the civil date. Location, calendar method and family tradition all affect the result, and Jaipur times differ by several minutes from Kolkata or other cities. Our earlier Jaipur Panchang report for October 20 covers Dussehra and the Navami-to-Dashami shift, and the Astrology archive contains other cultural-calendar explainers.
