About Nalla Neram in Matara

Matara's Nalla Neram is calculated from Matara's actual local sunrise (6:00 AM GMT+5:30 today), not from Indian sunrise. Matara is same timezone as IST, so the Tamil diaspora here can see both local Matara time and the IST equivalent. Today Matara has 12 hr 15 min of daylight (sunset 6:15 PMGMT+5:30). Nalla Neram occurs twice daily in 48-minute auspicious windows.

The same sunrise (6:00 AM GMT+5:30) that sets Nalla Neram (11:00 AM–11:48 AM GMT+5:30) also anchors today's golden hour for photography: morning 6:00 AM–6:28 AM (28 min); evening 5:47 PM–6:15 PM (28 min).
