Madurai Panchang November 2026
Sunrise, sunset and the five sunrise-derived windows for all 30 days, computed for 9.9252°N 78.1198°E.
In November 2026 the sun rises in Madurai as early as 06:07 on Sunday 1 November and as late as 06:18 on Monday 30 November — a spread of 11 minutes across the month. Sunset moves from 17:54 on Sunday 1 November to 17:52 on Saturday 7 November. The longest daylight is 11h 47m on Sunday 1 November and the shortest 11h 35m on Monday 30 November.
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 Madurai in November 2026 an eighth runs from 87 minutes to 88 minutes, and a table quoting a flat ninety minutes is wrong here by up to 3 minutes. Rahu Kaal on 1 November, a Sunday, is 16:26-17:54 — 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 November 2026 in Madurai it begins as early as 07:36 on 2 November, a Monday, and as late as 16:26 on 29 November, a Sunday — 8h 50m apart, against a sunrise spread of only 11 minutes. There is no single “Rahu Kaal time” to memorise, here or anywhere.
Madurai sits 0.91° east of New Delhi, which on longitude alone would put its sunrise 4 minutes earlier. Measured against the national table it actually runs from 37 minutes earlier to 25 minutes earlier across November 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 12 minutes across the month. On the worst day in the table below the national panchang’s Rahu Kaal begins 28 minutes from Madurai’s. A national table would get Madurai’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 November 2026 Purnima falls on 24 November; Amavasya on 9 November; the single Ekadashi on 5 November.
November 2026 day by day in Madurai
All times IST. Abhijit is given for every day, including this month’s 4 Wednesdays — 4 November, 11 November, 18 November, 25 November — 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 Madurai in November 2026 it lasts 87 minutes to 88 minutes, which over 30 days comes to 43h 47m 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 November is 12:01-13:29.
- Abhijit muhurat is the eighth of fifteen equal parts of daylight, the one straddling local solar noon — so it too shifts with Madurai’s longitude, and being a fifteenth rather than an eighth it runs 46 minutes to 47 minutes here in November 2026 — 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 November in Madurai that is 04:31-06:07, the month’s earliest.
- 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 Madurai to the minute. Which of November 2026’s suits a particular purpose in Madurai depends on your birth chart, and that is a conversation.
