Bengaluru is located 1,741 km south of New Delhi, so Dhuhr in Bengaluru is called roughly 2 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 Bengaluru.
