Recent Earthquakes Near Jaipur
Latest: M5.8 near 665km W of Bikaner, Rajasthan, India (17 Oct 2026, 10:37 AM)
- M5.8 · 665km W of Bikaner, Rajasthan, India17 Oct 2026, 10:37 AM
How is Jaipur's AQI calculated?
The Air Quality Index combines PM2.5, PM10, NO₂, SO₂, CO and O₃ readings from CPCB-monitored stations into one 0–500 score, using whichever pollutant reads worst as the overall number rather than an average of all of them. Today the dominant pollutant driving that number in Jaipur is CO. Jaipur's current AQI of 481 falls in the "Severe" band (400+).
Is Jaipur's air quality safe today?
Not fully - Jaipur is at Severe today (AQI 481). Avoid all outdoor activity. This level affects even healthy people.
What are today's petrol and diesel prices in Jaipur?
Petrol is ₹112.66/L, diesel ₹97.78/L, for Jaipur. Fuel prices are revised daily and can vary slightly by station. The base crude and refinery cost is the same nationwide - state VAT and cess are what make petrol cheaper or pricier just across a state line.
Why does Jaipur's gold price match the national rate?
Gold is one national spot rate, not set city by city - Jaipur's price tracks the same international gold market and the day's USD/INR exchange rate as everywhere else in India.
Are banks open in Jaipur today?
No - banks in Rajasthan are closed today (Sunday).
What is Rahu Kalam in Jaipur today?
Rahu Kalam in Jaipur today runs from 4:19 PM to 5:45 PM. Hindu tradition treats this window as inauspicious for starting new ventures, travel, or important decisions.
Why Check Jaipur's Weather and AQI?
Jaipur, Rajasthan's capital and the 'Pink City', anchors India's Golden Triangle tourist circuit alongside Delhi and Agra, and its walled old city was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2019. It's also a major hub for gemstone cutting and jewelry export, a trade that, like Surat's diamond industry, depends on stable, low-humidity working conditions.
Tourism and Gem Trade Impact
Jaipur's desert-edge semi-arid climate means brutal summer heat but a long, reliably pleasant tourist season from October through March, when most of its Golden Triangle visitors arrive. Gem-cutting and jewelry workshops, concentrated in the old city, are sensitive to the same humidity swings that affect diamond polishing elsewhere - unusually damp spells can affect fine stone-cutting work. Track Jaipur weather before a walking tour of the old city in summer.
Seasonal Guide
Oct-Mar: Peak Tourist Season - Warm days, cool nights - Jaipur's most comfortable and busiest months for visitors.
Apr-Jun: Extreme Heat - Highs regularly exceed 44°C; outdoor fort and palace visits shift to early morning.
Jul-Sep: Monsoon - Modest but welcome rainfall; check Jaipur AQI as dust levels rise again in the dry months either side of it.
Data Methodology
Weather and AQI figures are drawn from public government monitoring sources and refreshed regularly. See Rajasthan weather and AQI for how Jaipur compares with other cities in the state.
