- Against New Delhi. Sunrise in Bengaluru today is at 6:12 AM, 17 minutes earlier than New Delhi (6:29 AM); sunset is at 5:55 PM, 14 minutes later than New Delhi (5:41 PM). Longitude: Bengaluru lies 0.4° east of Delhi, so local noon comes 2 minutes sooner (12:03 PM against 12:05 PM). Latitude: Bengaluru lies 15.6° south of Delhi, and from the September equinox to the March one, days run longer the further south you go; today's daylight here is 32 minutes longer (11 hours 43 minutes against 11 hours 11 minutes), which pulls sunrise earlier and pushes sunset later by about 16 minutes each.
- Tonight. 12 hours 17 minutes from sunset to tomorrow's sunrise — the ratrimana, whose eighths are the night Choghadiyas and whose twelfths are the night Horas.
- Local noon. Midway between sunrise and sunset, Bengaluru's noon falls at 12:03 PM today, 3 minutes after 12:00 on the clock. Bengaluru lies 4.9° west of the 82.5° E meridian its clock keeps, which makes noon 20 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. Bengaluru has 11 hours 43 minutes of daylight today, against 11 hours 48 minutes a week ago and 11 hours 39 minutes a week from now: the days here are getting shorter by about 4 minutes a week, and will until the shortest day, around 21 December. In 2026 the longest day is 12 hours 54 minutes (around 20 June) and the shortest 11 hours 22 minutes (around 21 December), a swing of 1 hour 32 minutes, less than New Delhi's 3 hours 39 minutes.
- The year's extremes. The earliest sunrise of 2026 is 5:52 AM (around 31 May) and the latest 6:46 AM (around 23 January); the earliest sunset is 5:50 PM (around 19 November) and the latest 6:50 PM (around 9 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. Bengaluru lies 13.0° north of the equator, south of the Tropic of Cancer, so the noon Sun stands directly overhead twice a year: around 24 April and 18 August in 2026. On those two days an upright pole casts almost no shadow at local noon.
- The calendar here. Karnataka counts its lunar months from new moon to new moon (amanta), so today is Ashwin Krishna Pratipada. A panchang from a state that counts the other way prints the same day as Kartika Krishna Pratipada: the festival date is the same, only the month's name moves.
- Nearest cities. Mysuru (128 km south-west) — sunrise 3 minutes later; Salem (157 km south) — sunrise 4 minutes earlier.
Most of a panchang is measured from sunrise rather than from midnight, so the figure above sets the boundaries of the day's other timings in Bengaluru: Choghadiya, Hora and Rahu Kaal are all divisions of the interval between it and sunset.

Both times are computed from this city's own latitude and longitude for today's date, not read from a national table. India keeps one clock across roughly 30 degrees of longitude, so real sunrise varies across the country by well over an hour.
Positions come from the Swiss Ephemeris, using this city's coordinates and today's date. Sunrise and sunset are the moments the Sun's upper edge crosses the horizon, which is the convention a printed panchang uses and the reason these times differ by a minute or two from a "centre of the disc" figure.
Moonrise and moonset come from the same calculation for the Moon. They are the first after this sunrise and before the next — the panchang day — so a moonrise after midnight carries the next date. The Moon rises roughly 50 minutes later each day, so on some days it does not rise at all in that span and that row is omitted rather than left blank.

Why is sunrise in Bengaluru different from Delhi?

Delhi and every major city on one page: Sunrise and sunset today.
Sunrise and sunset are properties of a place, so each city is calculated separately. A time computed for Delhi is wrong in Chennai by a meaningful margin.
