Panchang in Varanasi
Varanasi sits at 25.34°N, 83.01°E. This Panchang is named at that sunrise and then kept for the rest of the civil date.
Varanasi sits about 21 minutes of mean solar time west of Kolkata, so the sun's clock time here is typically later on India Standard Time (GMT+5:30).

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.
