Gau Seva and Shradh for families in London

Britain's Indian families have lived in London for three and four generations. Many children here have never seen a Shradh — and for parents, Pitru Paksha is a chance to pass the tradition on. We make the offerings in India in your family's names — so the day is never missed.

Timing from London

  • During Pitru Paksha (British Summer Time) London is 4 hours 30 minutes behind India, so dawn in India is about 1:30 AM in London — the recording is usually best.
  • Watching the recording together over a Sunday lunch is how many families share it with their children.

Pitru Paksha 2026 from London

Pitru Paksha 2026 runs from 27 September to 10 October in India, ending on Mahalaya Amavasya (10 October). Because the offering is made at dawn in India, the local date in London may differ for families in the Americas — tell us which calendar your family follows and we will confirm the right day. See Pitru Paksha 2026 dates and meaning and how to perform Shradh from outside India.
