Identify the active period
This page selects the Mahadasha, Antardasha and Pratyantardasha covering the dated assessment instant from the Vimshottari timeline returned by MahaGuru. It uses your birth record and reports the date of the snapshot so the meaning of current remains clear.
Read the levels together
An Antardasha belongs inside a Mahadasha, and a Pratyantardasha belongs inside an Antardasha. The table shows the returned boundaries rather than inventing new period dates. Use the full Vimshottari timeline if you want to inspect earlier or later periods.
Saved current results become historical records
A saved report remains tied to its calculation date. Reopen it to review that snapshot, or generate a fresh reading when you want an updated assessment. A period label does not guarantee a particular event during its date range.
How to use this calculator
- Check the prefilled birth details or select your own saved family profile.
- Enter a known birth time and select the correct birthplace.
- Generate the report. When signed in, your profile and the result save to your account automatically.
Frequently asked questions
What does current mean on this page?
It refers to the assessment instant shown with the generated report, not to an endlessly changing saved record.
Can I see earlier and later periods?
Use the full Vimshottari Dasha page to expand the returned timeline beyond the active period.
What happens exactly at a period boundary?
The active-period selection treats the start as included and the end as excluded, so the next period becomes active at its start.
