Anand Choghadiya — आनंद चौघड़िया
State
Gujarat
Sunrise Range
5:57–7:25 AM
Coordinates
22.56°N, 72.93°E
Known nationwide as the Milk Capital of India and the birthplace of the Amul cooperative movement, Anand's devotional life centres on the BAPS Swaminarayan Mandir, a six-storey temple of striking architecture just 0.65 km from Anand Junction railway station. The Vadtal Swaminarayan Mandir, the 1824 southern-diocese headquarters of the original Swaminarayan Sampraday, lies 13 km away, while the famous Ranchhodraiji (Lord Krishna) temple at Dakor is approximately 40 km distant. Janmashtami, Annakut, Diwali, and Sharad Purnima are celebrated with particular joy here. Panchang, choghadiya, and rahu kaal timings are computed for Anand's exact coordinates.
Local Choghadiya Context in Anand
Anand (आनंद) local observances include Janmashtami, Annakut, Sharad Purnima. Keep this page for starts that happen inside Anand: festival preparation, vrat planning, puja sankalp, travel departure, shop opening, document signing, and family decisions tied to the city's own panchang.
Anand coordinate facts for Choghadiya: 22.5645 degrees north; 72.9289 degrees east; state Gujarat; timezone Asia/Kolkata; sunrise range 5:57–7:25 AM. These facts define the city's daylight envelope, so do not copy a Shubh, Labh, Amrit, Char, Kaal, Rog, or Udveg slot from another city into Anand.
Anand's mornings move to the churn of milk – the cooperative dairy heart of Charotar where Amul rose – and its Choghadiya opens with that agrarian, education-driven tempo: a dairy-society ledger balanced, a tobacco or agro consignment booked, a college admission season begun at Vallabh Vidyanagar, a farm-input order cleared. Every khata, sankalp, and first step of a family venture in Anand belongs to a decision that begins inside Anand.
Name the first Anand act before choosing a window: a dairy-society settlement near Amul Dairy Road, an agro-trade deal at Sardar Ganj market, a college or hostel booking in Vallabh Vidyanagar, or a shop lease near Anand station. Choghadiya picks the opening slot; Panchang and Rahu Kaal confirm the wider day before any irreversible trade or property step.
Do not borrow Nadiad, Vadodara, or Kheda timings for a decision rooted here. When the ledger, shop key, registry paper, family sankalp, or journey starts inside Anand, this page's sunrise range and Charotar-plain coordinates are the value source even when the counterparty sits elsewhere.
Anand first acts often carry a locality trigger: Sardar Ganj and Amul Dairy Road trade deals, tobacco and agro consignments across the Charotar belt, cooperative-society settlements near Amul, campus and hostel starts at Vallabh Vidyanagar and the Agricultural University, showroom launches on Station Road and Anand-Vidyanagar Road, family departures from Gamdi, Lambhvel, Bakrol, or Mogri, temple sankalp at ISKCON Anand, the Swaminarayan Mandir, or a Ram Mandir, festival muhurats around Janmashtami, Navratri, and Uttarayan, and rail or road starts from Anand Junction toward Vadodara and Ahmedabad.
Which places near Anand can read these Choghadiya timings
Vallabh Vidyanagar lies 5 km south-west of Anand and sees sunrise 0m to +1m against it, so the first Choghadiya boundary in the table above moves by that much there. Across every place listed below the shift runs −3m to +3m and each of the eight daylight periods keeps the same length it has here, so the periods do not stretch — only the boundary moves.

How Anand Residents Use Choghadiya Today
Use the Anand table for the place where the first physical action begins. If the person lives in Gujarat but the journey, delivery, meeting, griha pravesh, or sankalp starts elsewhere, switch to that city's page before choosing the muhurat.
For Anand, read the table with the city's festival calendar (Janmashtami, Annakut, Sharad Purnima), the daylight span 5:57–7:25 AM, and the coordinates 22.5645 degrees north, 72.9289 degrees east. That combination is what separates a Anand Choghadiya decision from a generic all-India timing rule.
For expensive or irreversible work in Anand, treat Choghadiya as the quick filter and then verify the same date with Anand's Panchang, Rahu Kaal, and Shubh Muhurat pages. All three use the same local coordinate set.
Compare the selected Choghadiya with the day's Panchang and Rahu Kaal before fixing the final muhurat.
Nearby timing pages for Gandhinagar, Bhavnagar, Rajkot, Udaipur, Jamnagar, Nashik are linked below because sunrise, sunset, and period boundaries can move even across short regional distances. Use those pages when the work starts outside Anand.
Other Gujarat city pages here include Rajkot, Gandhinagar, Jamnagar, Bhavnagar. Compare them only for route planning or family coordination; choose the final muhurat from the exact city where the first action begins.
Frequently Asked Questions
What time does Amrit Choghadiya start today in Anand?
Use the live Amrit row on this Anand page. It is calculated from आनंद / Anand, Gujarat, 22.5645 degrees north, 72.9289 degrees east, and the local sunrise range 5:57–7:25 AM, so the start shown here belongs to Anand only.
Is Anand Choghadiya different from nearby cities?
Yes. The table divides Anand's daylight and night into local periods. Another city in Gujarat can shift a boundary, so keep Anand's row only for work that starts in Anand.
How do Anand residents use Choghadiya for local festivals?
For Anand, people commonly check Choghadiya around Janmashtami, Annakut, Sharad Purnima. Use a supportive period for the first step, then confirm the full day with Anand's Panchang when the ritual, vrat, shop opening, or journey has higher stakes.
Should I use Anand Choghadiya or Rahu Kaal first?
Use both for Anand. First choose a supportive Choghadiya period for the work, then check that the same Anand slot does not overlap Rahu Kaal.
