About Sunrise & Sunset in Chennai
This page shows today's sunrise and sunset times for Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, computed from the city's own latitude, longitude and timezone (Asia/Kolkata). Because sunrise and sunset depend on your exact position on Earth and the time of year, the times here are specific to Chennai and differ from those of other cities — even ones in the same timezone.
The day length is simply the span from sunrise to sunset; it lengthens toward the summer solstice and shortens toward winter. The Brahma Muhurat is the auspicious 48-minute window that ends shortly before sunrise, traditionally the best time for prayer, meditation and study. Sunrise also anchors the Hindu day, so it determines the Panchang, the Choghadiya, the Hora and every muhurat for Chennai. For an important ceremony, confirm the timing with a qualified astrologer.
