Calculation note: Panchang values are calculated for the selected date and location. Regional conventions may differ; verify important observances with a trusted local Panchang.
How Rahu Kaal is calculated
The duration is based on the local daylight interval, so the clock time changes by city and date. Traditional practice often advises avoiding the start of certain new activities during this period; interpretations differ.
Location-specific timing
Always use the selected city. A printed Panchang may be prepared for a reference city and show a different clock time.
