Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga and Karana are shown as they stand at sunrise in Kolkata, the traditional rule for the day's Panchang. Times use India Standard Time (UTC+5:30), the same as India (IST). Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika are each one eighth of the time from sunrise to sunset, so their length changes through the seasons.
Start and end times are in Kolkata time. A vrat is usually kept on the day the Tithi is running at sunrise; your family or temple tradition may differ.
Daylight in Kolkata today lasts 11 h 18 min. Over the year it ranges from about 10 h 45 min to 13 h 31 min, so Rahu Kaal here is anywhere from 81 to 101 minutes long, and every daytime Muhurat stretches and shrinks with the seasons.
Sunrise in Kolkata today is 5:40 AM, 17 minutes earlier on the clock than in Patna (469 km away). Even nearby cities need their own Panchang.
Kolkata is on India Standard Time (UTC+5:30), the same as India (IST).
Kolkata does not use daylight saving time, so the clock stays the same all year. Enter birth times exactly as written on the birth certificate.
Kolkata sees sunrise earlier than almost any other big Indian city, so its Panchang timings differ noticeably from Delhi or Mumbai even on the same IST clock. Durga Puja, Kali Puja and Poila Baishakh shape the year, and the Kalighat and Dakshineswar temples draw huge crowds on Amavasya and festival days.
A Tithi begins at the same moment everywhere, but the local clock and sunrise differ. The day's Tithi is the one running at local sunrise, so Kolkata can have a different Tithi on a given date than Delhi.
