Bhopal Panchang August 2027
Sunrise, sunset and the five sunrise-derived windows for all 31 days, computed for 23.2599°N 77.4126°E.
In August 2027 the sun rises in Bhopal as early as 05:50 on Sunday 1 August and Monday 2 August and as late as 06:01 on all 3 days from Sunday 29 August to Tuesday 31 August — a spread of 11 minutes across the month. Sunset moves from 19:02 on Sunday 1 August to 18:39 on Tuesday 31 August. The longest daylight is 13h 12m on Sunday 1 August and Monday 2 August and the shortest 12h 38m on Tuesday 31 August.
That matters more than it sounds, because Rahu Kaal, Gulika and Yamaghanta are each one eighth of the interval from sunrise to sunset rather than fixed clock spans — so in Bhopal in August 2027 an eighth runs from 95 minutes to 99 minutes, and a table quoting a flat ninety minutes is wrong here by up to 9 minutes. Rahu Kaal on 1 August, a Sunday, is 17:23-19:02 — the 8th of those eight parts, which is the one a Sunday always takes.
Because the weekday chooses the part, Rahu Kaal’s position on the clock swings much further than sunrise does. Across August 2027 in Bhopal it begins as early as 07:29 on 2 August, a Monday, and as late as 17:23 on 1 August, a Sunday — 9h 54m apart, against a sunrise spread of only 11 minutes. There is no single “Rahu Kaal time” to memorise, here or anywhere.
Bhopal sits 0.20° east of New Delhi, which on longitude alone would put its sunrise 1 minute earlier. Measured against the national table it actually runs from 3 minutes later to 8 minutes later across August 2027. It is a range rather than a constant because latitude bends the figure with the season while longitude only shifts it, and here that bend is worth 5 minutes across the month. On the worst day in the table below the national panchang’s Rahu Kaal begins 8 minutes from Bhopal’s. A national table would get Bhopal’s tithi right and every one of its times wrong.
Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are the same everywhere in India and are read at sunrise from the same DE421 table the rest of the site uses — listed here for completeness, not because they differ by city: across these 31 sunrises the nakshatra takes 27 of its 27 values and the tithi 29 of its 30. In August 2027 Purnima falls on 17 August; Amavasya on 2 August; the two Ekadashis on 12 August and 28 August.
August 2027 day by day in Bhopal
All times IST. Abhijit is given for every day, including this month’s 4 Wednesdays — 4 August, 11 August, 18 August, 25 August — because the rule that sets it aside on a Wednesday is followed in some traditions and not others. The window is arithmetic; whether to use it that day is not.

How to read these windows
- Rahu Kaal is one of the eight equal parts of the daylight interval, chosen by weekday, and nothing new is begun inside it. In Bhopal in August 2027 it lasts 95 minutes to 99 minutes, which over 31 days comes to 50h 05m of this city’s daylight.
- Gulika and Yamaghanta are two other eighths of the same interval, also fixed by weekday: on a Sunday they fall in its 7th and 5th parts. Gulika is listed in the table above; Yamaghanta on 1 August is 12:26-14:05.
- Abhijit muhurat is the eighth of fifteen equal parts of daylight, the one straddling local solar noon — so it too shifts with Bhopal’s longitude, and being a fifteenth rather than an eighth it runs 51 minutes to 53 minutes here in August 2027 — a little over half the length of Rahu Kaal on the same day. Some traditions set it aside on a Wednesday, of which this month has four; the table above computes it on all of them and leaves the observance to you.
- Brahma muhurat is the ninety-six minutes ending at sunrise, so unlike the eighths it is the same length all year and moves only as sunrise does. On Sunday 1 August in Bhopal that is 04:14-05:50, the month’s earliest, and unchanged on Sunday 1 August and Monday 2 August.
- The five limbs — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and the weekday — are read at sunrise, which is why a local sunrise matters even for quantities that do not themselves vary by place.

A muhurat needs your chart, not only your city
These windows are correct for Bhopal to the minute. Which of August 2027’s suits a particular purpose in Bhopal depends on your birth chart, and that is a conversation.
