What you will see
Panipat is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 16:27:44 local time, the Moon hides 7.5% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 15:53:17 and ends at 17:00:38, 1 h 7 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 35° above the horizon, towards the west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Panipat.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 3,237 km south-west of Panipat.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is El Dibir, about 3,306 km south-west, where totality lasts 3 m 26 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
