Rahu Kaal is one eighth of the daylight, so its length follows the length of the day. In Hyderabad in 2026 it is shortest around 21 December 2026 (about 83 minutes) and longest around 21 June 2026 (about 99 minutes).
How these times are worked out:sunrise and sunset are computed for the city's latitude and longitude, and the daylight between them is cut into eight equal parts. The weekday-to-part table for Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika matches every published almanac we checked, but we have not located a classical verse for it, so we present it as almanac convention rather than cite a text.
