About the panchang in Pondicherry
Pondicherry keeps UTC+05:30 all year, with no daylight saving, so timings change only with the seasons.
Sunrise in Pondicherry moves from 5:46 AM (May 21) to 6:37 AM (Jan 22), and daylight lasts from 11 h 23 min to 12 h 47 min. Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda and Gulika are each one-eighth of the daytime, so in Pondicherry they last about 85 minutes in the shortest days and 96 minutes in the longest: never a fixed 90 minutes, and never fixed clock times.
All calculations use Drik Ganita: Pondicherry's own sunrise and sunset (NOAA solar formulas) and the true positions of the Sun and Moon (Astronomy Engine, validated against NASA JPL), with Lahiri ayanamsa.
