Kolkata Panchang June 2027

In June 2027 the sun rises in Kolkata as early as 04:51 on all 17 days from Tuesday 1 June to Thursday 17 June and as late as 04:55 on Wednesday 30 June — a spread of 4 minutes across the month. Sunset moves from 18:17 on Tuesday 1 June to 18:25 on Monday 28 June. The longest daylight is 13h 32m on Tuesday 22 June and the shortest 13h 26m on all 3 days from Tuesday 1 June to Thursday 3 June.

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 Kolkata in June 2027 an eighth runs from 101 minutes to 102 minutes, and a table quoting a flat ninety minutes is wrong here by up to 12 minutes. Rahu Kaal on 1 June, a Tuesday, is 14:56-16:36 — 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 June 2027 in Kolkata it begins as early as 06:32 on 7 June, a Monday, and as late as 16:43 on 27 June, a Sunday — 10h 11m apart, against a sunrise spread of only 4 minutes. There is no single “Rahu Kaal time” to memorise, here or anywhere.

Kolkata sits 11.15° east of New Delhi, which on longitude alone would put its sunrise 45 minutes earlier. Measured against the national table it actually runs a steady 31 minutes earlier all month. Latitude accounts for the remaining 14 minutes, in the later direction: Kolkata lies 6.04° 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 55 minutes from Kolkata’s, because the same numbered eighth is being taken from a longer or shorter day. A national table would get Kolkata’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 28 of its 30. In June 2027 Purnima falls on 18 June; Amavasya on 4 June; the three Ekadashis on 1 June and 14 June and 30 June.
