Why are the baby shower dates for Singapore different from an Indian calendar?

The Hindu day runs from local sunrise to local sunrise, so the tithi and nakshatram in force on a given date in Singapore are read at Singapore's sunrise — not Chennai's. On days where an element changes near dawn the two calendars simply land on different dates. Every date on this page is computed for Singapore specifically.

Q: How many baby shower dates are there in 2028 for Singapore?

34 in 2028. Dates for a seemantham or valaikappu. Traditionally held in the fifth, seventh or ninth month of pregnancy, so the window is fixed by the pregnancy and the family picks the best date inside it — use the month filter on the page rather than reading the whole year.

Why these dates

Each date above passed every rule for a baby shower in our published rule set — the nakshatram and tithi prevailing at sunrise in Singapore, the weekday, the Tamil month, and where it applies the planetary combustion (moudhyam) periods and eclipse days. The rahu kalam column is a caution rather than a filter: the date can be good and the hour still needs choosing.
