About Rahu Kaal in Nairobi

Nairobi's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Nairobi's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:30 AM GMT+3 (9:00 AM IST). Nairobi is 2h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Nairobi 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 Nairobi's specific latitude (-1.2864°) and longitude (36.8172°). Today Nairobi has 12 hr 5 min of daylight (sunrise 6:30 AM, sunset 6:35 PMGMT+3).

Today's Rahu Kaal (9:31 AM–11:01 AM GMT+3) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:30 AM GMT+3) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:30 AM–6:58 AM (28 min) and evening 6:07 PM–6:35 PM (28 min) — all derived from Nairobi's precise coordinates. Photography planner for Nairobi →
