How should I read these times?

Amrit, Shubh and Labh are labelled traditionally favourable. Char / Chal is shown as movement / neutral; interpretations differ by tradition. Rahu, Gulika and Yamaganda overlaps appear beside the affected interval. Vela and Kaal Ratri exceptions are not implemented, so a favourable label is not a complete muhurat recommendation.

Why do other websites show different minutes?

Coordinates, sunrise conventions, rounding and astronomical models can differ. This page uses 27.32574, 88.61216, the Sun’s upper edge with refraction and a sea-level horizon. Compare the same date, location and method before assessing a difference.
