Amrit, Shubh, Labh and Char by day and by night in Ahmedabad, IST, from Sunday 1 November 2026

A night slot belongs to the date on which its night begins. Udveg, Kaal and Rog are left out of this table. For any other date or town, use the panchang for any place and date.

How choghadiya is worked out for Ahmedabad

The daytime, from sunrise to sunset, is divided into eight equal slots, and the night, from sunset to the next sunrise, into eight more. On Sunday 1 November 2026 a day slot in Ahmedabad lasts about 1 hour 25 minutes and a night slot about 1 hour 35 minutes.

Seven names are used. By day they follow each other in the order Udveg, Char, Labh, Amrit, Kaal, Shubh, Rog, and at night in the order Udveg, Shubh, Amrit, Char, Rog, Kaal, Labh, each list repeating round. The weekday decides which name comes first. With eight slots and seven names, the first name comes round again as the eighth slot.

Amrit (nectar), Shubh (auspicious), Labh (gain) and Char (moving) are held to be good, Char above all for travel. Udveg (unease), Kaal (loss) and Rog (illness) are avoided for starting something new.

Sunrise and sunset used here

Sunrise and sunset are the moments the upper edge of the Sun touches the horizon, with the standard allowance for the bending of light in the air (refraction), which puts the centre of the Sun 0.833 degrees below the horizon. They are worked out for Ahmedabad's latitude and longitude (23.02 degrees N, 72.57 degrees E) at sea level by this site's own panchang engine, the same one behind the Ahmedabad panchang, and they agree with the Swiss Ephemeris to within 3 seconds. Times are Indian Standard Time (UTC+5:30) and are cut, not rounded, to the minute.

Where traditions differ

• Fixed tables. Some calendars print choghadiya slots of exactly 90 minutes from 6 am, as if the Sun always rose at 6 am and set at 6 pm. Counted from Ahmedabad's real sunrise and sunset, a slot on Sunday 1 November 2026 lasts about 1 hour 25 minutes by day and 1 hour 35 minutes by night.
• Good slots with an avoid window. Every day slot is one of the same eight parts of the day as Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika Kaal. Some families skip a good slot in which one of those three falls; the day table above marks them.
• Char. Most lists count Char as good, above all for travel; some treat it as neutral.
• Vela markings. Some Gujarati almanacs also mark Kaal Vela, Vaar Vela and Kaal Ratri within the choghadiya. This page does not show them.
• Sunrise. Some almanacs take sunrise as the moment the centre of the Sun reaches the horizon, which in Ahmedabad comes about 1 to 1.5 minutes later, or the centre with no allowance for refraction, about 3.5 to 4.5 minutes later. Sunset then comes earlier by the same amount, and each slot moves by up to that much.
• How strictly to keep it. Regions and families differ in how much weight they give to the choghadiya, which is followed most in Gujarat, Rajasthan and western India. If your family or your temple follows a printed almanac, follow it.
