Jaipur Panchang December 2026

In December 2026 the sun rises in Jaipur as early as 06:58 on Tuesday 1 December and as late as 07:15 on Wednesday 30 December and Thursday 31 December — a spread of 17 minutes across the month. Sunset moves from 17:33 on Tuesday 1 December to 17:44 on Thursday 31 December. The longest daylight is 10h 35m on Tuesday 1 December and the shortest 10h 27m on 12 days of the month.

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 Jaipur in December 2026 an eighth runs from 78 minutes to 79 minutes, and a table quoting a flat ninety minutes is wrong here by up to 12 minutes. Rahu Kaal on 1 December, a Tuesday, is 14:54-16:14 — the 7th of those eight parts, which is the one a Tuesday always takes.

Because the weekday chooses the part, Rahu Kaal’s position on the clock swings much further than sunrise does. Across December 2026 in Jaipur it begins as early as 08:21 on 7 December, a Monday, and as late as 16:23 on 27 December, a Sunday — 8h 02m apart, against a sunrise spread of only 17 minutes. There is no single “Rahu Kaal time” to memorise, here or anywhere.

Jaipur sits 1.42° west of New Delhi, which on longitude alone would put its sunrise 6 minutes later. Measured against the national table it actually runs a steady 3 minutes later all month. Latitude accounts for the remaining 3 minutes, in the earlier direction: Jaipur lies 1.70° south of New Delhi, and how much that costs depends on the season. The windows drift further than sunrise itself does: on the worst day in the table below the national panchang’s Rahu Kaal begins 9 minutes from Jaipur’s, because the same numbered eighth is being taken from a longer or shorter day. A national table would get Jaipur’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 26 of its 27 values and the tithi 29 of its 30. In December 2026 Amavasya on 8 December; the two Ekadashis on 4 December and 20 December.
