Sunrise and sunset use the Sun's centre on the horizon without refraction (the Hindu sunrise convention), so they can differ by a few minutes from weather apps. Lahiri ayanamsa. All times are local (Asia/Kolkata).

Common questions

Why is your sunrise a few minutes later than my phone's?

Weather apps use the top edge of the Sun with atmospheric refraction. Panchangs traditionally use the Sun's centre without refraction, which is a few minutes later.

Is Rahu Kaal the same everywhere?

No. It depends on local sunrise and sunset, so it changes by city and by date.
