Panchang at local sunrise, as in printed panchangs; the line after each limb shows what follows it. Times in Asia/Kolkata.

Moonrise and moonset follow the Indian Panchang convention: the centre of the Moon on the true horizon, without atmospheric bending. Apps using the western convention show moonrise about 4 minutes earlier.
