Partial solar eclipse in bangalore is from 4.28 pm to 6.48 pm but sun sets 
by 6.05 pm. Tarpana must be done between 4.30 pm and 5.30 pm approx.

As per our information, in India we have grastasta solar eclipse that is 
the sun sets before before release and so we cannot have a glimpse of a 
eclipse-free sun before setting. As we have to stop eating before atleast 
six to seven hours before eclipse Almanac says no food in the morning. And 
as we cannot see the clear Sun free of eclipse before setting we are 
prohibited eating even in the night today, 3rd Monday. Only after seeing 
clear Sun Tuesday morning we can have food. This restriction is for able 
people.  As for infirm and weak, they allow lite foods and liquids as per 
sastras. Adherence is left to the will of the devotees.
