According to the Hindu calendar, Raksha Bandhan is celebrated on the full moon day (Purnima) of the Shukla Paksha in the month of Shravan.

This year, Raksha Bandhan will be observed on August 19, 2024.

The Purnima Tithi will begin at 03:04 AM on August 19 and will end at 11:55 PM on the same day.

The most favorable time to tie Rakhi will be between 01:30 PM and 09:05 PM on August 19. Tying Rakhi during this period is considered highly auspicious.

It is advisable to avoid tying Rakhi during the Bhadra period, as it is considered inauspicious.

On August 19, 2024, the Bhadra period will start at 05:53 AM and end at 01:30 PM. Rakhi should be tied after the Bhadra period ends.

It is believed that tying Rakhi during the Bhadra period can cause tension in the relationship between brothers and sisters. Therefore, it is recommended to wait until the Bhadra period is over before tying the Rakhi.
