Why Brisbane needs its own Panchang, not India's

The sun rises in Brisbane at 5:10 AM AEST today, 5 h 43 min before it rises in New Delhi. Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and Choghadiya are all counted from that local sunrise. New Delhi's Rahu Kaal today, converted to Brisbane time, would be 1:45 PM to 3:11 PM - but Brisbane's own Rahu Kaal is 8:22 AM to 9:58 AM.

Today the tithi at sunrise is Shukla Shashthi in Brisbane but Shukla Saptami in New Delhi, because the tithi changes between the two sunrises. On days like this a fast or festival can fall on a different date in Brisbane than in India. Tithi and Nakshatra ending times are the same instant everywhere, so those convert from IST exactly; anything tied to sunrise does not.
