Pitru Paksha 2026
Purnima Shraddh 2026
Saturday, 26 September 2026
Who it is for: Those who passed away on Purnima (the full moon).
Perform tarpan and pind daan, feed a Brahmin or someone in need, and give food and clothes in charity. The best time is midday (Kutup and Rohina muhurat) rather than morning or evening. If your ancestor’s tithi is not known, use Sarva Pitru Amavasya on 10 October 2026.
Date is the day the tithi prevails in the afternoon (Delhi). Some panchangs differ by a day when a tithi is short. Festival dates follow the Hindu lunar calendar (tithi) and can differ by a day between regions and panchangs. Times are computed for each city from NASA JPL planetary data. Confirm with your local temple or priest for religious observances.
