How this day differs

  • Sunrise 06:06 (yesterday 06:07), sunset 18:32 (yesterday 18:32), daylight 12 h 26 min (yesterday 12 h 25 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 14:31, yesterday 13:34; moonset 03:13 (next day), yesterday 02:29 (next day).
  • At 06:06 the tithi is Shukla Dashami; at yesterday’s sunrise (06:07) it was Shukla Navami.
  • At 06:06 the Moon is in Ashlesha (Pushya at 06:07 yesterday), in Karka (Cancer); the yoga is Ganda (yesterday Dhriti).

Bengaluru lies at 12.97° N, 77.59° E; local solar noon is at 12:19. Against Delhi on the same date, sunrise here is 11 min later, sunset 15 min earlier and daylight 26 min shorter; the limbs end at the same clock times in both.

Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and Brahma muhurta

Each daylight part is 1 h 33 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (50 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.
