"—" 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 and astronomical moonrise

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 Moon from Jaipur: what is local

Why Jaipur's clock times run late

India Standard Time is set for 82.5° E. Jaipur lies at 75.79° E, about 6.7° farther west, so the sky turns past Jaipur roughly 27 minutes later than past the IST meridian. That is why Moon and Sun events in Jaipur fall later on the clock than in eastern India on the same date.

Dry-season skies, pre-monsoon dust

Jaipur's semi-arid climate gives many clear nights outside the monsoon months. Before the monsoon, dust can still dim a low Moon even when the cloud forecast is near zero, because the forecast does not measure dust.
