How this is calculated
Eight equal windows from sunrise to sunset, and eight more from sunset to the next sunrise. The sequence is fixed by weekday and is the same everywhere in India — what changes city to city is the length of the day, which is why this page computes from Kolkata's own sunrise rather than a national reference.
