Is the day getting longer or shorter in Jaipur right now?
Jaipur gets 11h 53m of daylight today, from sunrise to sunset. Tomorrow will be 1 minute 34 seconds shorter. Over the next seven days Jaipur loses 10 minutes 57 seconds of daylight.
That pace is not constant. In Jaipur the day length changes fastest around March, near the equinox, when it moves by about 1 minute 36 seconds per day, and it slows almost to a stop at the solstices in June and December. The word solstice means exactly that: the sun standing still.
When are the earliest and latest sunrise and sunset in Jaipur?
The earliest sunset of 2026 in Jaipur falls on 30 November at 17:33, 21 days before the December solstice, and the latest on 1 July at 19:24.
Sunrise runs on its own schedule: earliest on 9 June at 05:32, latest on 12 January at 07:17, 22 days after the December solstice. The four dates in the table below do not line up with the solstices, and they are not supposed to. Earth's orbit is slightly elliptical and its axis is tilted, so the sun runs a few minutes fast or slow against clock time through the year. That offset, the equation of time, is what pushes the earliest sunset ahead of the shortest day and the latest sunrise behind it.
| Extreme | Date | Local time | Why then |
|---|---|---|---|
| Earliest sunrise | 9 Jun 2026 | 05:32 | 12 days before the June solstice |
| Latest sunrise | 12 Jan 2026 | 07:17 | 22 days after the December solstice |
| Earliest sunset | 30 Nov 2026 | 17:33 | 21 days before the December solstice |
| Latest sunset | 1 Jul 2026 | 19:24 | 10 days after the June solstice |
