Rahu Kalam
07:18 – 09:01
Later today — starts at 07:18
Yamaganda
10:44 – 12:27
Yamaganda — Yama's portion of the day — runs from 10:44 to 12:27 in Ghaziabad today. It follows its own weekday sequence over the same eight parts of the daytime and is likewise avoided for beginnings, journeys above all.
Gulika Kalam
14:09 – 15:52
Gulika Kalam — the portion of Gulika (Mandi), Saturn's offspring — runs from 14:09 to 15:52 today. Classical texts hold that what is begun under Gulika tends to repeat itself, so it is kept clear of solemn one-time acts.
Tomorrow (Tuesday): 15:52 – 17:35
On Monday, 20 July 2026, the sun rises in Ghaziabad at 05:35 and sets at 19:18, giving a daytime span (dinamana) of 13 h 43 min. One-eighth of that span is about 103 minutes, and on a Monday the second part belongs to Rahu — which puts today's window at 07:18–09:01 local time. Yamaganda runs 10:44–12:27 and Gulika Kalam 14:09–15:52 today; all three windows shift a little every day as Ghaziabad's sunrise and sunset move.

How Rahu Kalam works in Ghaziabad
Rahu Kalam is not a fixed clock window: it is one-eighth of the time between sunrise and sunset, and which eighth depends on the weekday. This page therefore recomputes Ghaziabad's window every day from the city's own sunrise and sunset — the times above are today's, not a printed average.
Through the year the window stretches and drifts. In Ghaziabad's longer days each of the eight parts grows past ninety minutes and Rahu Kalam sits later or longer; in shorter days it tightens. Two cities on the same date rarely share a window, which is why a Delhi table should not be used in Mumbai.
During the window, tradition defers beginnings — journeys, ventures, signings, purchases — and lets ongoing work continue. If you need an auspicious slot instead, use today's Choghadiya chart and Abhijit Muhurat, linked above, and pick a window that does not overlap Rahu Kalam.

- When are Yamaganda and Gulika Kalam today in Ghaziabad?
- Yamaganda runs 10:44 to 12:27 and Gulika Kalam 14:09 to 15:52 in Ghaziabad today. Both come from the same eight-part division of the daytime as Rahu Kalam, each with its own weekday sequence.
