How these timings are calculated
Sunrise, sunset and every window on this page are calculated for the coordinates of Chennai using the Drik (observational) method with the Lahiri Ayanamsa. The Panchangam day runs from one sunrise to the next, so a Tithi or Nakshatra shown with an end time changes during the day. Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam and Gulika Kalam are one-eighth portions of the daytime that depend on the weekday.
