At sunrise the Moon is 135.2° ahead of the Sun. 135.2 ÷ 12° = 11.27, which puts it in lunar day 12 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish

Abhijit11:54 AM – 12:28 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 34 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal2:19 PM – 3:23 PM
Daylight today is 512 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 64 minutes. On Tuesday, Rahu Kaal is part 7. 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 124 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.
