Jamshedpur Rahu Kaal Today
Jamshedpur, Jharkhand · 25 August 2026
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is a roughly one-and-a-half-hour period that occurs every day and is considered inauspicious for beginning important tasks. Its clock time changes daily because it is measured as the eighth part of the day, counted from sunrise, in a fixed sequence that depends on the weekday.

What is Rahu Kaal?
Rahu Kaal (or Rahu Kalam) is a daily inauspicious period of about 90 minutes ruled by the shadow planet Rahu. The daytime from sunrise to sunset is divided into eight equal parts, and one of those parts is Rahu Kaal — which part depends on the weekday.

How is Jamshedpur Rahu Kaal calculated?
The day (sunrise to sunset) is divided into 8 equal parts. The Rahu Kaal segment follows a fixed weekday order (e.g. 8th part on Monday, 2nd on Saturday). Sunrise and sunset for Jamshedpur, Jharkhand are computed with Swiss Ephemeris, so Jamshedpur's Rahu Kaal is specific to the city and never the same as another city's.
Can I do puja during Rahu Kaal?
Routine daily prayer is generally fine, but starting a new vrat, major puja, yajna, or auspicious ceremony during Rahu Kaal is traditionally avoided. Rahu-related remedies are an exception some practitioners deliberately time to this window.
Does Rahu Kaal change every day?
Yes. The weekday sequence is fixed, but the clock times shift daily because they depend on Jamshedpur's actual sunrise and sunset, which move through the year. This page recalculates Jamshedpur Rahu Kaal daily.
