Longest and shortest day in Ludhiana
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 14h 9m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 4 months, with 10h 8m.
Between them the day length swings by 4h 0m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 5:24 pm on 3 December; the latest is 7:33 pm on 30 June. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 5:22 am on 11 June to 7:25 am on 9 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 9m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Ludhiana different
Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:28, a full 28 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.
Sunset here is followed by about 25 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.
Evening golden hour runs 48 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 41 — at 30.9° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.
The gap between the longest and shortest day of the year comes to 4h 0m, one of the widest swings of any India city on the site.
Over a year the sunset point slides 55° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is WNW.
By the end of August the sun will be setting 30 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 61 seconds a day.
