Common questions
Can this be done if the exact tithi of death is not known?
Yes. Where the tithi is not known, families traditionally choose an Amavasya or a Pitru Paksha day. The date can be decided together on a call.
Who in the family should sit for it?
Traditionally the eldest son or, in his absence, another son, grandson or close male relative of the family. Please discuss your family's situation beforehand.
