Date and timings for New Delhi.
How the date is fixed
Hartalika Teej falls on Shukla Tritiya of Bhadrapada. The day is decided by the tithi prevailing at sunrise (udaya tithi). When the tithi touches that time on two days, the day it covers more is used.
Calculated for New Delhi. Festival dates can differ by a day between cities and between regional traditions; your family priest's panchang has the final word.
How it is celebrated
Women keep a strict fast — often without water — make clay images of Shiva and Parvati, worship them in the morning and stay awake through the night singing devotional songs.

Why do calendars sometimes show different dates for Hartalika Teej?
Hindu festivals follow the lunar tithi, which begins and ends at different clock times. Each festival has a rule about which part of the day the tithi must cover — sunrise, midday, dusk or midnight. When the tithi straddles two days, calendars that apply the rule for a different city, or a different tradition, can land on different days. We show the rule we used and the tithi timings so you can check.
