Chidambaram does not change its clocks; times stay on Asia/Kolkata all year. How times are calculated
Chidambaram is in Tamil Nadu and has about 62,000 people. The nearest larger city is Neyveli, 31 km to the northwest. Chidambaram lies 2.8° west of the 82.5° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 11 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:11, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.
Chidambaram lies within the tropics. Around 20 April and 24 August the Sun passes straight overhead at Dhuhr, and upright objects cast almost no shadow at noon. Days in Chidambaram range from 11h 27m in December to 12h 48m in June, a difference of 1h 21m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them.
Prayer times shift with longitude: about 4 minutes for every degree east or west. Here is how today's Fajr and Maghrib in nearby places compare with Chidambaram, calculated with the same method.
