Longest and shortest day in Mumbai
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 13h 16m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 4 months, with 10h 58m.
Between them the day length swings by 2h 17m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 5:58 pm on 25 November; the latest is 7:20 pm on 6 July. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 6:00 am on 6 June to 7:14 am on 18 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 8m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Mumbai different
Sitting on the western side of its time zone puts solar noon at 12:40, a full 40 minutes after twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.
Sunset here is followed by about 22 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.
Between solstices the sunset walks 50° across the horizon — WSW in midwinter, WNW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.
Across August the sunset moves 20 minutes earlier, averaging about 40 seconds a day.
On 16 May and 28 July the midday sun stands at the zenith, 73 days apart. Those are the only two days of the year with no noon shadow.
Planning a sunset photo in Mumbai
Arrive by 6:13 pm. Golden hour opens at 6:28 pm and the sun is down by 6:58 pm, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 281° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
