Yellowish-orange light(seems something was burning) observed in the EAST sky from Ahmedabad -Vadodra Express Highway, Gujarat,India.

I was going from Ahmedabad to Vadodra by the Express Highway in the bus with all my friends on the College Picnic. On the way at 07.20 AM (indian standard time) we saw a yellowish orange light in the East when sun was still down.. There were no clouds around, it was a clear sky. It was lookin as something is burning n moving at great speed but the source of the light was not seen.

First that light was white in colour n then slowly turned to yellowish-orange n then after 4 to 5 mins of its observation it just disappeared from the sky without leaving any marks. We observed it at around 40 to 50 degree angle from the ground.. n it was of the magnitude of -4 or -5.

Before i could take its picture it disappeared. I couldnot make out what that object was.
