- Against New Delhi. Sunrise in Rishikesh today is at 6:26 AM, 3 minutes earlier than New Delhi (6:29 AM); sunset is at 5:35 PM, 6 minutes earlier than New Delhi (5:41 PM). Longitude: Rishikesh lies 1.1° east of Delhi, so local noon comes 4 minutes sooner (12:01 PM against 12:05 PM). Latitude: Rishikesh lies 1.5° 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 3 minutes shorter (11 hours 9 minutes against 11 hours 13 minutes), which pushes sunrise later and pulls sunset earlier by about 2 minutes each. A Delhi table would put the day's Nalla Neram parts 3–6 minutes too late here today; use this page's own times.
- How long each Gowri part lasts. A daytime Gowri part is an eighth of the daylight, 1 hour 24 minutes today, and a night one an eighth of the night, 1 hour 36 minutes.
- Local noon. Midway between sunrise and sunset, Rishikesh's noon falls at 12:01 PM today, 1 minute after 12:00 on the clock. Rishikesh lies 4.2° west of the 82.5° E meridian its clock keeps, which makes noon 17 minutes late; the time of year (the equation of time) takes off 16 minutes today. Abhijit Muhurat is centred on this moment, not on twelve o'clock.
- Day length. Rishikesh has 11 hours 9 minutes of daylight today, against 11 hours 21 minutes a week ago and 10 hours 58 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 6 minutes (around 21 June) and the shortest 10 hours 13 minutes (around 21 December), a swing of 3 hours 53 minutes, more than New Delhi's 3 hours 39 minutes.
- The year's extremes. The earliest sunrise of 2026 is 5:15 AM (around 11 June) and the latest 7:14 AM (around 10 January); the earliest sunset is 5:17 PM (around 2 December) and the latest 7:23 PM (around 1 July). 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. Rishikesh lies 30.1° north, 6.6° beyond the Tropic of Cancer, so the Sun never stands directly overhead: at its highest, around 21 June, it is 83° above the horizon at noon.
- The calendar here. Uttarakhand counts its lunar months from full moon to full moon (purnimanta), so today is Ashwin Purnima.
- Nearest cities. Haridwar (19 km south-west) — sunrise the same minute; Dehradun (34 km north-west) — sunrise 1 minute later.
Gowri Panchangam divides the daylight into eight parts and the night into eight more, each carrying one of eight names — Amirdha, Uthi, Laabam, Dhanam and Sugam are read as favourable, Rogam, Soram and Visham are not. The parts are measured from your local sunrise, so they differ in every city.
Everything above comes from the same computation behind today's full Panchang, using Swiss Ephemeris positions and your city's actual coordinates rather than a national average.
For what these periods mean and how they are traditionally used — including their limits — read the Nalla Neram guide. For choosing a time deliberately, see how muhurta is actually chosen.
The slow transits work on a different scale entirely — Saturn and Jupiter change sign in years rather than in hours. Shani Gochar, Guru Gochar, Rahu Ketu Gochar, Sade Sati, Mercury retrograde.
Timing guidance here is a framework for planning, not medical, legal or financial advice. Never delay medical care for a timing window.
Nalla Neram questions, answered
Which Nalla Neram is running right now in Rishikesh?
The Visham Nalla Neram is running now in Rishikesh, from 12:01 AM to 1:37 AM. It is traditionally read as inauspicious.
What time does Nalla Neram start in Rishikesh today?
The table above starts at sunrise in Rishikesh, which is 6:26 AM today. Every window on this page is measured from that sunrise, so the first period begins there rather than at midnight.
Why is Nalla Neram different in Rishikesh than in Delhi?
Because the periods are divisions of the time between Rishikesh's own sunrise and sunset, not a national table. Sunrise differs across India by well over an hour, so a time computed for Delhi is wrong in Rishikesh by a meaningful margin.
How many Nalla Neram periods are there?
16 are listed above for Rishikesh — the full set covering sunrise to the next sunrise.
Delhi and every major city on one page: Nalla Neram today.
These windows are derived from local sunrise, so they differ by city. A time computed for Delhi is wrong in Chennai by a meaningful margin.
