Sunrise Range
4:44–6:31 AM

Hanuman Tok, a Hanuman temple at 7,200 feet maintained by the Indian Army, offers panoramic Himalayan views alongside daily worship. Panchang, choghadiya, and rahu kaal timings are computed for Gangtok's exact coordinates.
Local Choghadiya Context in Gangtok
If festival preparation, a vrat, puja sankalp, travel, a shop opening, document signing, or a family decision starts inside Gangtok, use this city's table. No local observance is inferred without subject-bound evidence.
Gangtok coordinate facts for Choghadiya: 27.3314 degrees north; 88.6138 degrees east; state Sikkim; timezone Asia/Kolkata; sunrise range 4:44–6:31 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 Gangtok.
Gangtok Choghadiya belongs to the place where the first irreversible step begins. Living elsewhere in Sikkim, or dealing with someone in another city, does not change that starting location.
Gangtok's periods are derived from 27.3314 degrees north, 88.6138 degrees east, Asia/Kolkata, and the local sunrise range 4:44–6:31 AM. A table calculated for another city is therefore not interchangeable with this one.
Name the physical action first — payment, signature, journey, delivery, shop opening, or puja sankalp — then check that Gangtok period against Panchang and Rahu Kaal. This page makes no local landmark, custom, or observance claim without subject-bound evidence.

How Gangtok Residents Use Choghadiya Today
Use the Gangtok table for the place where the first physical action begins. If the person lives in Sikkim but the journey, delivery, meeting, griha pravesh, or sankalp starts elsewhere, switch to that city's page before choosing the muhurat.
For Gangtok, read the table with the daylight span 4:44–6:31 AM, and the coordinates 27.3314 degrees north, 88.6138 degrees east. Those governed inputs separate a Gangtok Choghadiya decision from a generic all-India timing rule.
For expensive or irreversible work in Gangtok, treat Choghadiya as the quick filter and then verify the same date with Gangtok'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 Siliguri, Purnia, Malda, Bhagalpur, Gaya, Gandhinagar are linked below because sunrise, sunset, and period boundaries can move even across short regional distances. Use those pages when the work starts outside Gangtok.
Frequently Asked Questions
What time does Amrit Choghadiya start today in Gangtok?
Use the live Amrit row on this Gangtok page. It is calculated from गंगटोक / Gangtok, Sikkim, 27.3314 degrees north, 88.6138 degrees east, and the local sunrise range 4:44–6:31 AM, so the start shown here belongs to Gangtok only.
Is Gangtok Choghadiya different from nearby cities?
Yes. The table divides Gangtok's daylight and night into local periods. Another city in Sikkim can shift a boundary, so keep Gangtok's row only for work that starts in Gangtok.
How should I use Gangtok Choghadiya around a festival or vrat?
Use a supportive Gangtok period for the first step of the plan, then confirm the full day with Gangtok's Panchang when the ritual, vrat, shop opening, or journey has higher stakes. The page does not label an observance local without subject-bound sources.
Should I use Gangtok Choghadiya or Rahu Kaal first?
Use both for Gangtok. First choose a supportive Choghadiya period for the work, then check that the same Gangtok slot does not overlap Rahu Kaal.
