The Moon moves through one Nakshatra in about a day, and through one pada in about six hours, so the birth time matters. Enter the time on the birth record exactly as written; in Chandigarh that is India Standard Time (UTC+5:30), the same as India (IST). Below you can see the Nakshatra in Chandigarh right now and its syllables.
At sunrise today in Chandigarh the Moon is in Mrigashira, pada 4. Names for a baby born in this Nakshatra traditionally start with: Ve, Vo, Ka, Ki (one syllable for each of the four padas).

All times are Chandigarh local time (India Standard Time, UTC+5:30). Calculated from Chandigarh's own sunrise with the Lahiri ayanamsa.
Start and end times are in Chandigarh time. A vrat is usually kept on the day the Tithi is running at sunrise; your family or temple tradition may differ.
The length of the day decides the length of Rahu Kaal. In Chandigarh the shortest day has about 10 h 9 min of daylight and the longest about 14 h 8 min (today: 11 h 1 min), which gives a Rahu Kaal of 76 to 106 minutes.
Sunrise in Chandigarh today is 6:36 AM, 5 minutes later on the clock than in Delhi (239 km away). Even nearby cities need their own Panchang.
Chandigarh is on India Standard Time (UTC+5:30), the same as India (IST).
