Rahu Kaal for your city

Rahu Kaal — common questions

What is the Rahu Kaal timing today in London?

Today (Friday, 16 October 2026) Rahu Kaal in London is from 11:25 AM – 12:45 PM BST. It is the 4th of eight equal parts of the day between sunrise (7:26 AM) and sunset (6:05 PM).

What are Yamaganda and Gulika Kaal today in London?

Yamaganda is 3:25 PM – 4:45 PM and Gulika Kaal is 8:46 AM – 10:05 AM BST today in London. Like Rahu Kaal, both are eighth-of-the-day segments that traditional panchangs treat as less favorable for starting new things.

How is Rahu Kaal calculated?

The time from local sunrise to sunset is divided into 8 equal parts. Rahu Kaal is a fixed part for each weekday: Monday 2nd, Saturday 3rd, Friday 4th, Wednesday 5th, Thursday 6th, Tuesday 7th, Sunday 8th. Today daylight in London lasts 10h 39m, so each part is about 80 minutes.

What should I do during Rahu Kaal?

Tradition considers Rahu Kaal less favorable for starting new ventures, signing agreements or beginning journeys. Ongoing work, routine tasks, prayer and meditation are fine. If you need an auspicious window instead, Abhijit Muhurta around midday is widely used.

Is Rahu Kaal the same in every city?

No. Because it depends on local sunrise and sunset, Rahu Kaal shifts by city — today it is 10:40 AM onwards in Delhi, 10:56 AM in Mumbai and 9:54 AM in Kolkata (IST), and 11:25 AM BST in London. Fixed "10:30–12:00" style tables are only approximations.

Is Rahu Kaal in London shown in IST?

No. Rahu Kaal for London is calculated from London's own sunrise and sunset and shown in local time (BST, Europe/London). Converting an Indian (IST) Rahu Kaal to London time gives the wrong window, because the day length and sunrise in London are different.
