How this day differs

• Sunrise 06:11 (yesterday 06:11), sunset 17:55 (yesterday 17:55), daylight 11 h 44 min (yesterday 11 h 44 min).
• Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 17:57, yesterday 17:11; no moonset.
• At 06:11 the tithi is Shukla Purnima; at yesterday’s sunrise (06:11) it was Shukla Chaturdashi.
• At 06:11 the Moon is in Ashwini (Revati at 06:11 yesterday), having moved from Mina (Pisces) into Mesha (Aries); the yoga is Vajra (yesterday Harshana).
• Rahu Kaal moves from 16:27–17:55 on Sunday (daylight part 8 of 8) to 07:39–09:07 on Monday (part 2).

Bengaluru lies at 12.97° N, 77.59° E; local solar noon is at 12:03. Against Delhi on the same date, sunrise here is 17 min earlier, sunset 14 min later and daylight 31 min longer; the limbs end at the same clock times in both.

Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and Brahma muhurta

Each daylight part is 1 h 28 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (47 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.

Ekadashi, Purnima and Amavasya

• Ashwina Purnima: Purnima tithi from Sun 25 Oct 2026, 11:57 to Mon 26 Oct 2026, 09:42. Purnima is in effect at sunrise. Vrat and puja days can fall on the previous day where the rule looks at moonrise, evening or midday instead. Purnima dates for 2026.

This page reports the tithi calculation and the sunrise rule. Fasting and festival days also follow regional and sectarian rules; when in doubt, follow your own tradition or temple calendar.

When each limb changes

Times are local in Bengaluru (Asia/Kolkata). The first of each is in effect at sunrise; each next one begins where the previous ends. “Next day” means after midnight, before the next sunrise.
