- Against New Delhi. Sunrise in Amritsar today is at 6:42 AM, 13 minutes later than New Delhi (6:29 AM); sunset is at 5:46 PM, 5 minutes later than New Delhi (5:41 PM). Longitude: Amritsar lies 2.3° west of Delhi, so local noon comes 9 minutes later (12:14 PM against 12:05 PM). Latitude: Amritsar lies 3.0° north of Delhi, and from the September equinox to the March one, days run longer the further south you go; today's daylight here is 7 minutes shorter (11 hours 4 minutes against 11 hours 11 minutes), which pushes sunrise later and pulls sunset earlier by about 4 minutes each.
- How long Brahma Muhurat lasts. It is a fifteenth of the night that ends at sunrise: this morning's night was 12 hours 55 minutes, so the muhurta was 52 minutes. It is counted back from sunrise, so it moves with it: over the next week sunrise here moves 6 minutes later (6:42 AM to 6:48 AM).
- Local noon. Midway between sunrise and sunset, Amritsar's noon falls at 12:14 PM today, 14 minutes after 12:00 on the clock. Amritsar lies 7.6° west of the 82.5° E meridian its clock keeps, which makes noon 31 minutes late; the time of year (the equation of time) takes off 17 minutes today. Abhijit Muhurat is centred on this moment, not on twelve o'clock.
- Day length. Amritsar has 11 hours 4 minutes of daylight today, against 11 hours 17 minutes a week ago and 10 hours 52 minutes a week from now: the days here are getting shorter by about 12 minutes a week, and will until the shortest day, around 21 December. In 2026 the longest day is 14 hours 13 minutes (around 21 June) and the shortest 10 hours 6 minutes (around 21 December), a swing of 4 hours 8 minutes, more than New Delhi's 3 hours 39 minutes.
- The year's extremes. The earliest sunrise of 2026 is 5:25 AM (around 11 June) and the latest 7:31 AM (around 9 January); the earliest sunset is 5:27 PM (around 3 December) and the latest 7:40 PM (around 30 June). None falls on a solstice: the Sun's clock time drifts through the year, so the latest mornings come weeks after the shortest day.
- The overhead Sun. Amritsar lies 31.6° north, 8.2° beyond the Tropic of Cancer, so the Sun never stands directly overhead: at its highest, around 21 June, it is 82° above the horizon at noon.
- The calendar here. Punjab counts its lunar months from full moon to full moon (purnimanta), so today is Kartika Krishna Pratipada. A panchang from a state that counts the other way prints the same day as Ashwin Krishna Pratipada: the festival date is the same, only the month's name moves.
- Nearest cities. Jalandhar (75 km south-east) — sunrise 3 minutes earlier; Jammu (122 km north) — sunrise 2 minutes later.
Brahma Muhurat is counted backwards from sunrise, not from the clock, so it opens at a different time in every city and moves a little every day. It is never 4:00 AM by rule; it is 4:00 AM only on the days and in the places where sunrise happens to be at 5:36.
"Brahma" here is the creator and the hour named for him is the last stretch of night. Classical routine puts japa, path, study, meditation and pranayama in it, on the reasoning that the mind is unspent and the world is quiet — not on a claim that the window does anything on its own. It is the one auspicious period that asks nothing of the tithi, the nakshatra or the weekday.
India keeps one clock across about thirty degrees of longitude, so sunrise in Guwahati is more than an hour ahead of sunrise in Rajkot on the same date and the two cities' Brahma Muhurat differ by the same margin. Season moves it again: the window follows sunrise, so it is earliest in June and latest in January, and it is wider in winter, when the night it is a fifteenth of is longer.
Of the two muhurtas before sunrise, the almanacs name only the first as Brahma Muhurat — 4:58 AM - 5:50 AM today in Amritsar. The second, which runs up to sunrise, is the last watch of the night. This page prints the same window as the full Panchang, so the two can never disagree about the same minutes.
Sunset and sunrise come from the Swiss Ephemeris for this city's coordinates and these dates. The night between them is divided into fifteen equal muhurtas — the night's counterpart of the fifteenths of daylight Abhijit is built from — and Brahma Muhurat is the fourteenth: it opens two muhurtas before sunrise and closes one before it. So it is about 48 minutes near the equinoxes, longer in winter and shorter in summer.
