How this day differs

• Sunrise 05:39 (yesterday 05:39), sunset 17:00 (yesterday 17:01), daylight 11 h 21 min (yesterday 11 h 22 min).
• Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 20:48, yesterday 19:42; moonset 09:58, yesterday 08:53.
• At 05:39 the tithi is Krishna Panchami; at yesterday’s sunrise (05:39) it was Krishna Chaturthi.
• At 05:39 the Moon is in Mrigashira (Rohini at 05:39 yesterday), having moved from Vrishabha (Taurus) into Mithuna (Gemini); the yoga is Shiva (yesterday Parigha).
• Rahu Kaal moves from 12:45–14:10 on Thursday (daylight part 6 of 8) to 09:55–11:20 on Friday (part 4).

Kolkata lies at 22.56° N, 88.36° E; local solar noon is at 11:20. Against Bengaluru on the same date, sunrise here is 33 min earlier, sunset 53 min earlier and daylight 20 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 25 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (45 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.
