| Name / context | Significance |
|---|---|
| Kartik Amavasya | Diwali (Lakshmi Puja) — see the dedicated Diwali Date Calculator |
| Mauni Amavasya | Magha month; observed with silence (mauna) and holy-river bathing |
| Somvati Amavasya | Any Amavasya that falls on a Monday — considered especially auspicious |
| Pitru Paksha's final Amavasya (Sarvapitri Amavasya) | The last day of the ancestor-remembrance fortnight, in Ashwin month |
This is a calculated approximation using a fixed India Standard Time midday reference; the exact moment of new moon can fall at any time of day, so a date very close to the transition can occasionally differ by a day from another source.
- • Amavasya and Purnima (full moon) together mark the two poles of each lunar month — see the Purnima Date Calculator for the complementary full-moon dates.
