Pitru Paksha, the auspicious fifteen days, is the ideal time to perform Tripindi Shradh. Besides Pitru Paksha, the Amavasya, Panchami, and Ashtami Tithis of any month are regarded as auspicious according to Hindu calendars. However, Tripindi Shradh can be performed on any date if done in sacred cities such as Haridwar, Gaya, Varanasi, Allahabad, Ujjain, Tryambakeshwar, Nashik, Gokarna, Rameshwaram, and others.
