Panchang in Bangalore
- Latitude

- 77.5901°
- Time zone
- Asia/Kolkata
- Day length (2026)

Sunrise, sunset, and the eight daylight segments that define Rahu Kaal and Choghadiya are computed for Bangalore at 12.98°N, 77.59°E in Asia/Kolkata, so clock times differ from cities on another meridian or latitude even when the calendar date matches.
Tithi and other limbs are named for local sunrise, so a place with an earlier or later sun can show a different limb than a city hundreds of kilometres away on the same civil morning.
Local guide for Bangalore
Local time zone
Bangalore sits near 12.98N 77.59E in India under Asia/Kolkata. Bangalore keeps Asia/Kolkata on IST at UTC+5:30 all year with no daylight saving, so Panchang clock labels never jump an hour in spring or autumn. Nearest catalogue cities for comparison are Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune; each keeps its own sunrise even when the timezone name matches Asia/Kolkata. Engine mid-month samples for 2026 put day length between 11 h 23 min and 12 h 54 min at these coordinates.
Sunrise, sunset and the Panchang
For Bangalore, sunrise on the 2026 mid-month samples runs from about 5:53 AM to about 6:45 AM on the local clock. At 12.98 degrees north, the longest sampled day (12 h 54 min) falls near June and July, while the shortest (11 h 23 min) falls near December and January. Sunset follows from that day length, so a 12 h 54 min day stretches every daylight fraction and a 11 h 23 min day compresses them. Without a spring clock jump under Asia/Kolkata in Bangalore, the main seasonal drift still comes from solar geometry at 12.98N 77.59E. Do not paste IST sunrise from Delhi onto Bangalore; convert through Asia/Kolkata and 12.98N 77.59E.

Rahu Kaal in this city
Rahu Kaal is one eighth of local daytime from sunrise to sunset. In Bangalore during 2026, that block samples from about 1 h 25 min on short days to about 1 h 37 min on long days. The weekday that carries Rahu Kaal in Bangalore stays the same rule set, but the civil clock span widens when daytime reaches 12 h 54 min. Derive the interval from Bangalore sunrise and sunset under Asia/Kolkata, not from a printed sheet for another metro.
Choghadiya windows here
Choghadiya splits day (sunrise to sunset) and night (sunset to next sunrise) into eight quality watches. On a 12 h 54 min sample in Bangalore, day watches lengthen and night watches shrink; on a 11 h 23 min sample the reverse holds. Because Bangalore is in the northern hemisphere, a June daylight sheet runs longer than a December sheet. Prefer Labh, Amrit, or Shubh for starts in Bangalore; treat Kaal and Rog as poor launch windows on the local clock.
How to use today
Open the Bangalore Panchang page with timezone Asia/Kolkata and confirm sunrise, sunset, dawn Tithi, Rahu Kaal, and Abhijit Muhurta for the civil date you care about. Expect sunrise between about 5:53 AM and 6:45 AM across the 2026 mid-month samples, with Rahu Kaal near 1 h 25 min to 1 h 37 min. Keep device time automatic so local midnight in Asia/Kolkata matches the civil date on the sheet. Festival leaflets that quote Delhi IST still need a fresh Bangalore sunrise for the same lunar day.98N 77.59E.
Common questions for Bangalore
Does Bangalore use daylight saving?+
No spring jump under Asia/Kolkata. Bangalore keeps Asia/Kolkata on IST at UTC+5:30 all year with no daylight saving, so Panchang clock labels never jump an hour in spring or autumn.
How long is the day in Bangalore through 2026?+
Mid-month samples show about 11 h 23 min on the short side and about 12 h 54 min on the long side at 12.98N 77.59E.
How long is Rahu Kaal in Bangalore?+
As one eighth of daytime, sampled lengths run about 1 h 25 min to 1 h 37 min across the 2026 mid-month set.
What is Panchang?
Panchang means five limbs: Tithi (the lunar day, from the angle between Sun and Moon), Vara (the weekday), Nakshatra (the Moon’s mansion among 27), Yoga (a combined solar-lunar angle), and Karana (half of a Tithi). The names of the day are those limbs at local sunrise. Sunrise, moonrise, and the electional windows all belong to the place you enter, which is why a Panchang changes from city to city.
