These depend on the city: the day is split from local sunrise to sunset. Sunrise is the moment the upper edge of the Sun clears the horizon, with standard atmospheric refraction (the convention of civil almanacs and of Drik Panchang). Times in IST, to the minute.

Computed with the Swiss Ephemeris, sidereal zodiac, Lahiri ayanāṁśa 24°14′, for 12:00 IST. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are geocentric — they do not depend on your city. Traditional panchangs quote values at local sunrise, so figures can differ by a few minutes around a transition. In our check our Sun and Moon agreed with NASA JPL's DE440 ephemeris to about 2″; Drik Panchang's Moon runs about 30″ ahead of it, so its tithi and karana endings tend to come a minute earlier than ours.
