How is worked out
The day (sunrise to sunset) and the night (sunset to the next sunrise) are each split into eight equal slots, so a slot is longer than 90 minutes in summer daytime and shorter in winter. The weekday fixes the first slot of the day — Udveg on Sunday, Amrit on Monday, Rog on Tuesday, Labh on Wednesday, Shubh on Thursday, Char on Friday, Kaal on Saturday — and the slots then follow a fixed order.
Night slots after midnight still belong to the same Panchang day, which runs from sunrise to the next sunrise. Times are local clock times rounded to the nearest minute. How we calculate this →
