At sunrise the Moon is 184.2° ahead of the Sun. 184.2 ÷ 12° = 15.35, which puts it in lunar day 16 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish
NakshatraHasta until 8:09 AMthen Chitra until 9:55 AM, 3 Apr

SunRises 6:57 AM, sets 7:46 PM
Daylight today is 12h 49m. Sunrise and sunset are when the Sun’s upper edge crosses the horizon, allowing for the way the atmosphere bends light.
Abhijit12:56 PM – 1:47 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 51 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal2:58 PM – 4:34 PM
Daylight today is 769 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 96 minutes. On Thursday, Rahu Kaal is part 6. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it

Why times differ in Toronto

At 43.7°N, 79.4°W, Toronto has 19 minutes more 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.
