In Jain practice, during Paryushan the last meal (Chauvihar) should be completed before sunset.

• Ideal timing: finish eating at least 48 minutes (1 muhurt) before local sunset.
• Minimum maryada: do not eat once the sun sets.

Tradition-wise:

• Shvetambar: Chauvihar means no food and no water after sunset. Many follow finishing bhojan 48 minutes before sunset; boiled water is taken only before sunset.
• Digambar: Bhojan is to be completed in daylight, preferably 48 minutes before sunset; after sunset, even water is avoided. Many observe stricter gaps (2–3 hours) during Paryushan/Dashlakshan.

Please use your city’s daily sunset time to set the exact clock time.
