About Nalla Neram in Colombo

Colombo's Nalla Neram is calculated from Colombo's actual local sunrise (6:02 AM GMT+5:30 today), not from Indian sunrise. Colombo is same timezone as IST, so the Tamil diaspora here can see both local Colombo time and the IST equivalent. Today Colombo has 12 hr 17 min of daylight (sunset 6:19 PMGMT+5:30). Nalla Neram occurs twice daily in 48-minute auspicious windows.

The same sunrise (6:02 AM GMT+5:30) that sets Nalla Neram (11:02 AM–11:50 AM GMT+5:30) also anchors today's golden hour for photography: morning 6:02 AM–6:30 AM (28 min); evening 5:51 PM–6:19 PM (28 min).
