What time does the Moon rise today in Delhi?
It is 42° above the southeast horizon, 5% lit, and sets at 16:06 IST today in the west-southwest. Forecast cloud this hour: 0%.
The Moon rises on average about 50 minutes later each day (the daily shift varies through the month; see the table below), so some calendar dates have no moonrise or no moonset. Times assume a flat horizon at the city reference; buildings or hills delay what you actually see.

"—" means the Moon does not rise or set on that calendar date. Times use the local clock in force on each date, so daylight-saving changes appear where they happen.
Chandrodaya (चन्द्रोदय) means moonrise. The time on this page is the astronomical moonrise for the city reference. Festival and vrat timings, such as those for Karva Chauth or Sankashti Chaturthi, follow panchang rules and local custom that this page does not calculate. Use your family's or temple's panchang for religious observance; use this page to know when and where the Moon actually clears the horizon.
The city reference is in central Delhi at 28.65° N, 77.23° E. Noida and Gurugram lie only a fraction of a degree away, so their moonrise usually differs by about a minute or less. Your horizon makes a far bigger difference than the city boundary; use your own position if you need the exact local time.
Source: GeoNames — DelhiFrom late October into winter, Delhi's air quality often deteriorates and haze or fog thickens near the ground. A low Moon shines through the most air, so it can look dim or orange — or stay hidden — for some time after the calculated moonrise. Cloud forecasts do not include haze; check current air quality separately.
