At sunrise the Moon is 0.0° ahead of the Sun. 0.0 ÷ 12° = 0.00, which puts it in lunar day 1 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish

At sunrise the Moon is at 202.7° in the sidereal zodiac. 202.7 ÷ 13°20′ = 15.20, which puts it in nakshatra 16 of 27.
SunRises 7:08 AM, sets 4:20 PM
Daylight today is 9h 13m. Sunrise and sunset are when the Sun’s upper edge crosses the horizon, allowing for the way the atmosphere bends light.
Abhijit11:26 AM – 12:02 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 37 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal8:17 AM – 9:26 AM
Daylight today is 553 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 69 minutes. On Monday, Rahu Kaal is part 2. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it

Why times differ in London

At 51.5°N, 0.1°W, London has 100 minutes less daylight than New Delhi today, which changes the length and timing of each traditional period. The tithi at sunrise differs from New Delhi’s today: sunrise here falls in a different lunar day.
