Frequently Asked Questions

What is Rahu Kaal in Delhi on 23 October 2026?

In Delhi on 23 October 2026, Rahu Kaal runs from 10:40 AM to 12:05 PM. This 90-minute window is governed by Rahu and is traditionally avoided for starting new work, travel, or auspicious ceremonies. The timing shifts daily based on local sunrise, so it differs from city to city.

Why is sunrise in Delhi on 23 October 2026 at 6:27 AM?

Sunrise at 6:27 AM in Delhi on 23 October 2026 is determined by the city's geographic latitude (28.65°N) and the Earth's axial tilt on this date. The exact sunrise and sunset (5:42 PM) define the length of the Vedic day and anchor all panchang calculations — from Rahu Kaal to the choghadiya slots — to Delhi's local horizon.

What's the active choghadiya right now in Delhi?

The current choghadiya slot in Delhi is Udveg (10:29 PM–12:05 AM), rated as bad. This slot is inauspicious; prefer to wait for the next good-quality choghadiya.
