Delhi Panchang January 2027
Sunrise, sunset and the five sunrise-derived windows for all 31 days, computed for 28.6139°N 77.209°E.
In January 2027 the sun rises in Delhi as early as 07:10 on Saturday 30 January and Sunday 31 January and as late as 07:15 on all 8 days from Friday 8 January to Friday 15 January — a spread of 5 minutes across the month. Sunset moves from 17:35 on Friday 1 January to 17:59 on Sunday 31 January. The longest daylight is 10h 49m on Sunday 31 January and the shortest 10h 21m on Saturday 2 January.
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 Delhi in January 2027 an eighth runs from 78 minutes to 81 minutes, and a table quoting a flat ninety minutes is wrong here by up to 12 minutes. Rahu Kaal on 1 January, a Friday, is 11:06-12:24 — the 4th of those eight parts, which is the one a Friday always takes.
Because the weekday chooses the part, Rahu Kaal’s position on the clock swings much further than sunrise does. Across January 2027 in Delhi it begins as early as 08:32 on 2 days of the month, and as late as 16:38 on 31 January, a Sunday — 8h 06m apart, against a sunrise spread of only 5 minutes. There is no single “Rahu Kaal time” to memorise, here or anywhere.
Delhi is the place the site’s national panchang is computed for, so the times below are the tabulated DE421 values themselves rather than a second calculation of them. Every other city in this cluster is computed from its own coordinates and compared against these.
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 26 of its 27 values and the tithi 28 of its 30. In January 2027 Purnima falls on 22 January; Amavasya on 7 January; the two Ekadashis on 3 January and 19 January.
January 2027 day by day in Delhi
All times IST. Abhijit is given for every day, including this month’s 4 Wednesdays — 6 January, 13 January, 20 January, 27 January — 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 Delhi in January 2027 it lasts 78 minutes to 81 minutes, which over 31 days comes to 40h 56m of this city’s daylight.
- Gulika and Yamaghanta are two other eighths of the same interval, also fixed by weekday: on a Friday they fall in its 2nd and 7th parts. Gulika is listed in the table above; Yamaghanta on 1 January is 14:59-16:17.
- Abhijit muhurat is the eighth of fifteen equal parts of daylight, the one straddling local solar noon — so it too shifts with Delhi’s longitude, and being a fifteenth rather than an eighth it runs 41 minutes to 43 minutes here in January 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 Friday 1 January in Delhi that is 05:37-07:13, and on Saturday 30 January and Sunday 31 January — the month’s earliest sunrise — 05:34-07:10.
- 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.
This page is also the correct panchang for Noida: measured across all 730 tabulated days, its sunrise and every window derived from it never differ from Delhi’s by more than a minute, so a separate page would repeat this one rather than add to it.

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