IST (UTC+5:30) is anchored at 82.5°E, near Mirzapur. Visakhapatnam sits at 83.2185°E, so its local solar time runs roughly 3 minutes ahead of clock time, and that offset carries into the lagna and house cusps.
These figures are calculated from Visakhapatnam's coordinates (17.6868°N, 83.2185°E) with an astronomical ephemeris, not estimated. All clock times are Indian Standard Time (IST).
| Date (2026) | Sunrise | Sunset | Day length |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20 Mar (equinox) | 06:01 | 18:08 | 12h 6m |
| 21 Jun (longest day) | 05:23 | 18:34 | 13h 11m |
| 23 Sep (equinox) | 05:46 | 17:52 | 12h 7m |
| 21 Dec (shortest day) | 06:22 | 17:27 | 11h 4m |
Day length in Visakhapatnam swings by 2h 7m between the longest and shortest day, the 26th largest of the 30 cities on this site. Its 21 June sunrise at 05:23 IST is the 9th earliest of the 30. That is 1 minutes before Delhi's 21 June sunrise.
A worked example of the effect on lagna: at 06:00 IST on 21 June 2026 the sidereal ascendant in Visakhapatnam is Gemini, and it moves into Cancer at 07:16 IST. At the same latitude on the 82.5°E IST meridian that change happens at 07:19 IST, so in Visakhapatnam it comes 3 minutes earlier than on the meridian.
The same test in winter: at 06:00 IST on 21 December 2026 the ascendant in Visakhapatnam is Scorpio, moving into Sagittarius at 06:06 IST, against 06:09 IST on the 82.5°E meridian, so 3 minutes earlier than the meridian. That is a different sign from the June example because the Sun has moved on.
The closest other city on this site to Visakhapatnam is Hyderabad, 503 km away. It has solar time 19 minutes behind Visakhapatnam, a 21 June sunrise 19 minutes later and a day-length swing 3 minutes smaller.
Method: ephemeris sunrise/sunset (sea level, with refraction); ascendant from mean obliquity and Lahiri ayanamsa. Other software may differ by a minute or two.

Visakhapatnam (Andhra Pradesh) lies at 83.2185°E, so its local time runs about 3 minutes ahead of IST, which is set at 82.5°E. Lagna and house boundaries depend on that, so the right city matters even though India uses one clock.
Near a sign boundary, yes. By our calculation, on 21 June 2026 the Gemini ascendant in Visakhapatnam moves into Cancer at 07:16 IST, while at the same latitude on 82.5°E it does so at 07:19 IST. A birth between those two times gets a different lagna depending on the place used.
By our calculation, on 21 June 2026 the Sun rises in Visakhapatnam at 05:23 IST and sets at 18:34 IST, while on 21 December it rises at 06:22 IST. Vara (weekday) and many panchang calculations start from local sunrise, so for a birth near dawn both the place and the date change the answer.
