Sunrise today lands at 06:04 and sunset at 06:28 local time, giving 12h 24m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (10.76, 79.12) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Thanjavur.
The zone identifier Asia/Kolkata is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Kolkata keeps pointing at Kolkata time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
