About this day

Daylight lasts 13 hours and 6 minutes, so each eighth of the day, the length of Rahu Kalam, is about 98 minutes.

Between this sunrise and the next: tithi and karana at 8:32 am, nakshatra at 12:10 pm, yoga at 3:22 pm, karana at 6:42 pm, tithi and karana at 4:52 am Monday. Shukla Pratipada begins and ends within the day, so no sunrise names it.

On a Sunday, Rahu Kalam is the eighth of the eight parts of daylight, from 5:06 pm in Vijayawada.
