'''Nitya karma''' refers to those ''[[Karma (Hinduism)|karmas]]'' (or rituals) which have to be performed daily by Hindus{{According to whom|date=April 2021}}. The Hindu [[Shastras]]{{which|date=April 2021}} say that not performing '''nitya karmas''' leads to sin. The '''nitya karmas''' include:

*Snana ([[Abhisheka|bathing]])
*[[Sandhyavandanam]]
*[[Devataarchanam]]
*[[Aupasana]]m
*[[Agnihotra]]m

Nitya Karma does not necessarily mean daily duties. It includes any regular/periodic scheduled activities/duties. E.g.: Amavasya tharpanam, Grahana tharpanam, Pithru devasam.

There is a subdivision of Nithya karma which is called Nai-Nithya karma. This means compulsory karma but conditional. E.g. Grahana related karmas
