जयपुर पंचांग · Jaipur Panchang Friday, 31 July 2026 · Shravana Krishna Dvitiya · the Pink City
Sunrise in Jaipur, Rajasthan is 05:51 IST today — 9 minutes later than New Delhi, because the city sits at 75.79°E on a clock set for 82.5°E. Every reading below is taken at that sunrise, which is the traditional anchor, so the boundary times here can differ by minutes from an almanac typeset for another meridian.

Today in Jaipur
Two Jaipur processions are tithi-anchored and famous for it. Gangaur closes on Chaitra Shukla Tritiya after an eighteen-day observance that begins the day after Holi, and Teej rides out on Shravan Shukla Tritiya — the same third tithi, half a year apart, which is not a coincidence but the point. Both processions leave the City Palace in the late afternoon, after the Rahu Kaal window shown on this page has closed.
Jaipur is running Shravana Krishna Dvitiya today, which holds until 22:19. Keep anything you are starting fresh outside Rahu Kaal 10:53–12:33; the cleanest window of the day is Abhijit at 12:06–13:00.

Frequently asked questions
What time is sunrise in Jaipur today, and why does it differ from New Delhi?
Sunrise in Jaipur today is 05:51 IST and sunset is 19:16 IST — 9 minutes later than New Delhi. The cause is longitude, not the calendar: the whole country keeps one clock set to 82.5°E while Jaipur sits at 75.79°E, and every degree is worth about four minutes of sky. Everything on this page — the tithi and nakshatra readings, Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika and the Choghadiya split — is anchored to that local sunrise rather than to a Delhi almanac's.
Which lunar-month system does this page use for Jaipur, and does it change the tithi?
Rajasthan reads the month purnimanta, turning it at the full moon, and Jaipur has an unusually direct claim on the machinery behind it: Sawai Jai Singh II built the Jantar Mantar here in the 1730s to correct the very tables the region's panchangs were computed from. This page substitutes a modern ephemeris for those instruments and keeps the convention they served. Today the amanta reckoning calls this month Ashadha and the purnimanta reckoning calls it Shravana; the tithi is the same number in both. If you were quoted a date in the amanta system, the day is still the same day.
What this page cannot tell you
This is a panchang, not a birth chart. The tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and kaal windows above are the same for everyone standing in this city today; none of them knows your Moon sign, your running dasha, or the lagna that would rise at the hour you pick. Several observances also follow a rule this page does not apply — Janmashtami is settled at midnight, Diwali at pradosh, some ekadashi vratas by their parana window — so a temple's announced date can sit a day either side of the tithi marked here. Where that matters, check against your own family almanac; a disagreement between two panchangs is usually a difference of convention, not of fact.
How these timings were computed
Sunrise and sunset come from a NOAA solar-position model applied to Jaipur's actual coordinates (26.9124°N, 75.7873°E), not to a district centroid or a state capital. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are read at that same local sunrise from a sidereal ephemeris using the Lahiri ayanamsa, and their end times are found by bisection to about a minute. Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika are the weekday-selected eighths of the real daylight span, which is why they move through the year instead of sitting at a fixed clock hour. Nothing on this page is copied from a printed almanac.
