Rahu Kaal on Friday

Which part of the day it is, and the time in 30 large cities through the year.

Friday belongs to Venus (Shukra). Rahu Kaal is the fourth part of the day, late morning, and it is the weekday on which the late-morning hours are the ones to avoid for new beginnings.

The rule is the same in every place: cut the time from sunrise to sunset into eight equal parts and take part number 4. On a day that runs exactly from 6 am to 6 pm each part is 90 minutes, so the textbook answer for Friday is 10:30 am to 12:00 pm. Real days are never exactly 12 hours, and sunrise in Delhi is not sunrise in Chennai, so the table below gives the times in the 30 largest Indian cities for the middle of January, April, July and October 2027.

Cities in the north and west, where days change more through the year, move the most between the columns; cities near the equator hardly move. Open a city for its full weekday table or for today's time, or see how the times are calculated.
