About Rahu Kaal in Johannesburg
Johannesburg's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Johannesburg's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:24 AM GMT+2 (9:54 AM IST). Johannesburg is 3h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Johannesburg time and the corresponding IST equivalent — useful when coordinating with family in India.
Unlike most panchang apps which show India-based Rahu Kaal, this page calculates the correct inauspicious period for Johannesburg's specific latitude (-26.2044°) and longitude (28.0456°). Today Johannesburg has 11 hr 27 min of daylight (sunrise 6:24 AM, sunset 5:51 PMGMT+2).
Today's Rahu Kaal (9:15 AM–10:41 AM GMT+2) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:24 AM GMT+2) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:24 AM–6:55 AM (31 min) and evening 5:20 PM–5:51 PM (31 min) — all derived from Johannesburg's precise coordinates.
