Mahāsamund is located 969 km south-east of New Delhi, so Dhuhr in Mahāsamund is called about 20 minutes earlier than in New Delhi. This difference comes from longitude: every degree of longitude moves solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital is not accurate in Mahāsamund.
