How this day differs

• Sunrise 05:47 (yesterday 05:47), sunset 16:53 (yesterday 16:53), daylight 11 h 06 min (yesterday 11 h 07 min).
• Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 09:13, yesterday 08:22; moonset 19:56, yesterday 19:03.
• At 05:47 the tithi is Shukla Chaturthi; at yesterday’s sunrise (05:47) it was Shukla Tritiya.
• At 05:47 the Moon is in Mula (Jyeshtha at 05:47 yesterday), having moved from Vrishchika (Scorpio) into Dhanu (Sagittarius); the yoga is Dhriti (yesterday Sukarma).
• Rahu Kaal moves from 12:43–14:07 on Thursday (daylight part 6 of 8) to 09:57–11:20 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 30 min earlier, sunset 57 min earlier and daylight 27 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 23 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (44 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.
