Questions people ask about Madurai
What is today's Rahu Kaal in Madurai?
12:07 PM – 1:37 PM on Wednesday, 30 September 2026. Rahu Kaal is one eighth of the daylight, counted from Madurai's own sunrise at 6:07 AM, and the weekday decides which eighth — so it moves every day and differs from any other city's.
What is the tithi and nakshatra in Madurai today?
At sunrise in Madurai the tithi is Krishna Chaturthi and the Moon's star is Bharani. A tithi and a star end at the same instant everywhere, but each is read at the local sunrise, so a city an hour west can begin the day on the previous one.
Why do these times differ from a printed Madurai calendar?
Two usual reasons. A printed calendar is often computed for a state capital rather than for Madurai itself, and sunrise shifts by a few minutes over even a short distance. The other is method: these figures come from a planetary ephemeris (Drik Ganita) with the Lahiri ayanamsa, while some printed almanacs still follow older table-based methods that can differ by hours near the quarter moons.
