In Jain dharm, Navkārsi means taking the first food or water of the day after 48 minutes of sunrise (i.e. after 2 ghaḍī from sunrise).

So, in Surat:

• Today (around mid‑March), sunrise is about 6:50 am.
• So Navkārsi time ≈ 7:35–7:40 am.

Every day it changes slightly, because it always depends on that day’s local sunrise time.

How to find Navkārsi time in Surat daily:

1. Check that day’s sunrise time for Surat (from any reliable local source / calendar).
2. Add 48 minutes to that time.
3. From that time onward, you may take your first food/water (if you are following Navkārsi).

Example: If tomorrow sunrise in Surat is at 6:49 am, then Navkārsi will be at 7:37 am.
