Ranchi Choghadiya — रांची चौघड़िया
State
Jharkhand
Sunrise Range
5:06–6:36 AM
Coordinates
23.34°N, 85.31°E
Ranchi, Jharkhand's capital on the Chota Nagpur Plateau. Sarhul (spring tribal festival) and Karma (harvest festival) are unique to Jharkhand, blending tribal and Hindu traditions.
Local Choghadiya Context in Ranchi
If festival preparation, a vrat, puja sankalp, travel, a shop opening, document signing, or a family decision starts inside Ranchi, use this city's table. No local observance is inferred without subject-bound evidence.
Ranchi coordinate facts for Choghadiya: 23.3441 degrees north; 85.3096 degrees east; state Jharkhand; timezone Asia/Kolkata; sunrise range 5:06–6:36 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 Ranchi.
Ranchi Choghadiya belongs to the place where the first irreversible step begins. Living elsewhere in Jharkhand, or dealing with someone in another city, does not change that starting location.
Ranchi's periods are derived from 23.3441 degrees north, 85.3096 degrees east, Asia/Kolkata, and the local sunrise range 5:06–6:36 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 Ranchi period against Panchang and Rahu Kaal. This page makes no local landmark, custom, or observance claim without subject-bound evidence.
Which places near Ranchi can read these Choghadiya timings
Ratu lies 13 km north-west of Ranchi 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 −4m to +4m 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 Ranchi Residents Use Choghadiya Today
Use the Ranchi table for the place where the first physical action begins. If the person lives in Jharkhand but the journey, delivery, meeting, griha pravesh, or sankalp starts elsewhere, switch to that city's page before choosing the muhurat.
For Ranchi, read the table with the daylight span 5:06–6:36 AM, and the coordinates 23.3441 degrees north, 85.3096 degrees east. Those governed inputs separate a Ranchi Choghadiya decision from a generic all-India timing rule.
For expensive or irreversible work in Ranchi, treat Choghadiya as the quick filter and then verify the same date with Ranchi'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 Bokaro, Jamshedpur, Dhanbad, Rourkela, Ratlam, Rameswaram are linked below because sunrise, sunset, and period boundaries can move even across short regional distances. Use those pages when the work starts outside Ranchi.
Other Jharkhand city pages here include Jamshedpur, Dhanbad, Bokaro. 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 Ranchi?
Use the live Amrit row on this Ranchi page. It is calculated from रांची / Ranchi, Jharkhand, 23.3441 degrees north, 85.3096 degrees east, and the local sunrise range 5:06–6:36 AM, so the start shown here belongs to Ranchi only.
Is Ranchi Choghadiya different from nearby cities?
Yes. The table divides Ranchi's daylight and night into local periods. Another city in Jharkhand can shift a boundary, so keep Ranchi's row only for work that starts in Ranchi.
How should I use Ranchi Choghadiya around a festival or vrat?
Use a supportive Ranchi period for the first step of the plan, then confirm the full day with Ranchi'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 Ranchi Choghadiya or Rahu Kaal first?
Use both for Ranchi. First choose a supportive Choghadiya period for the work, then check that the same Ranchi slot does not overlap Rahu Kaal.
