How this day differs

  • Sunrise 06:04 (yesterday 06:05), sunset 18:32 (yesterday 18:32), daylight 12 h 28 min (yesterday 12 h 28 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 18:05, yesterday 17:12; moonset 05:59 (next day), yesterday 05:16 (next day).
  • At 06:04 the tithi is Shukla Purnima; at yesterday’s sunrise (06:05) it was Shukla Trayodashi, and Shukla Chaturdashi began and ended in between.
  • At 06:04 the Moon is in Chitra (Hasta at 06:05 yesterday), in Kanya (Virgo); the yoga is Harshana (yesterday Vyaghata).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 07:38–09:12 on Monday (daylight part 2 of 8) to 15:25–16:59 on Tuesday (part 7).

Bengaluru lies at 12.97° N, 77.59° E; local solar noon is at 12:18. Against Delhi on the same date, sunrise here is 13 min later, sunset 17 min earlier and daylight 30 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 34 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.

Ekadashi, Purnima and Amavasya

  • Chaitra Purnima: Purnima tithi from Tue 20 Apr 2027, 04:52 to Wed 21 Apr 2027, 03:57. 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 2027.

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.
