Which choghadiya is good in Varanasi today?

In Varanasi today, Tuesday, November 3, 2026, the sun rises at 6:07 AM and sets at 5:16 PM, giving 11 hr 9 min of daylight. Divided into eight, each day choghadiya runs 1 hr 24 min. The night, from 5:16 PM to tomorrow’s sunrise at 6:07 AM, is 12 hr 52 min, so each night choghadiya runs 1 hr 36 min. The day periods are shorter than the night ones at this time of year.

Today is a Tuesday, so the day opens with Rog at sunrise and the night opens with Kaal at sunset. The auspicious daylight periods in Varanasi fall at Labh 10:18 AM – 11:41 AM, Amrit 11:41 AM – 1:05 PM, Shubh 2:29 PM – 3:52 PM; the ones to avoid are Rog 6:07 AM – 7:30 AM, Udveg 7:30 AM – 8:54 AM, Kaal 1:05 PM – 2:29 PM, Rog 3:52 PM – 5:16 PM.

These are Varanasi’s own boundaries. A city a few hundred kilometres east or west has a different sunrise, and every one of the sixteen periods shifts with it, which is why a choghadiya table for another city is not a substitute for this one.

What else do people ask about Choghadiya in Varanasi?

What is the best choghadiya today in Varanasi?

In daylight: Labh 10:18 AM – 11:41 AM, Amrit 11:41 AM – 1:05 PM, Shubh 2:29 PM – 3:52 PM. After sunset: Labh 6:52 PM – 8:29 PM, Shubh 10:05 PM – 11:42 PM, Amrit 11:42 PM – 1:18 AM. Amrit is treated as the best of them, Shubh for anything meant to last, and Labh for gain; all three are fine for a beginning. Times are for Varanasi on Tuesday, November 3, 2026.

How long is one choghadiya in Varanasi today?

1 hr 24 min by day and 1 hr 36 min by night. Daylight in Varanasi today is 11 hr 9 min and the night is 12 hr 52 min; each is divided into eight equal parts, so the nominal 96 minutes is only a name.

Does Rahu Kaal fall inside a good choghadiya today in Varanasi?

Rahu Kaal in Varanasi today runs 2:29 PM – 3:52 PM, which overlaps Shubh (2:29 PM – 3:52 PM). That means part of Shubh is inside Rahu Kaal today. The more restrictive rule wins, so start after 3:52 PM instead.

What is the first choghadiya at sunrise today in Varanasi?

Rog, from 6:07 AM – 7:30 AM, because today is a Tuesday, and the day sequence for that weekday always opens on Rog. The night sequence tonight opens with Kaal at 5:16 PM.
