With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Chestnut-breasted Bunting sighting in Jaipur on a given day, based on 96 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 84th most-seen of the 214 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Chestnut-breasted Bunting in Jaipur on a given day, against under 5% in April–October and December, the lowest months. That is one of Jaipur's driest months, with about 5 mm of rain against 170 mm in August.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Chestnut-breasted Bunting sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

Of the 4 cities where we can rate Chestnut-breasted Bunting sightings, Jaipur has the highest daily chance: about 10%. Next come Srinagar (India, under 5%) and New Delhi (India, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Chestnut-breasted Bunting is recorded against all the birds logged in Jaipur (96 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
