About Thiruvananthapuram Panchang
Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), the capital of Kerala, is home to the sacred Padmanabhaswamy Temple — one of the wealthiest Hindu temples in the world — where daily puja timings are governed by the Malayalam Panchangam to the minute. The city's name means "City of Anantha" (Lord Vishnu's serpent), making accurate Panchang especially important for its deeply religious population. At 8.52°N, Thiruvananthapuram is India's southernmost state capital, with Rahu Kaal and sunrise times markedly different from North India.

Thiruvananthapuram is located at 8.52°N latitude and 76.94°E longitude. This means every time-sensitive Panchang element is specifically calibrated for Thiruvananthapuram residents.
