Kochi Panchang June 2026

In June 2026 the sun rises in Kochi as early as 06:02 on all 4 days from Monday 1 June to Thursday 4 June and as late as 06:07 on all 3 days from Sunday 28 June to Tuesday 30 June — a spread of 5 minutes across the month. Sunset moves from 18:42 on Monday 1 June to 18:49 on Saturday 27 June. The longest daylight is 12h 43m on 4 days of the month and the shortest 12h 40m on 2 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 Kochi in June 2026 an eighth runs a steady 95 minutes, and a table quoting a flat ninety minutes is wrong here by up to 5 minutes. Rahu Kaal on 1 June, a Monday, is 07:37-09:12 — the 2nd of those eight parts, which is the one a Monday always takes.

Because the weekday chooses the part, Rahu Kaal’s position on the clock swings much further than sunrise does. Across June 2026 in Kochi it begins as early as 07:37 on 1 June, a Monday, and as late as 17:14 on 28 June, a Sunday — 9h 37m apart, against a sunrise spread of only 5 minutes. There is no single “Rahu Kaal time” to memorise, here or anywhere.

Kochi sits 0.94° west of New Delhi, which on longitude alone would put its sunrise 4 minutes later. Measured against the national table it actually runs from 39 minutes later to 42 minutes later across June 2026. 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 3 minutes across the month. On the worst day in the table below the national panchang’s Rahu Kaal begins 32 minutes from Kochi’s. A national table would get Kochi’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 30 sunrises the nakshatra takes 26 of its 27 values and the tithi 29 of its 30. In June 2026 Purnima falls on 29 June; Amavasya on 15 June; the two Ekadashis on 11 June and 25 June.
