In principle, it is permissible to perform sajdah tilaawa after Fajr or Asr. Conversely, it is not permissible to perform it during sunrise, zenith, or sunset. However, if the verse of sajdah was recited during one of these three times, it would be permissible to perform the sajdah immediately, although it is still better to delay until later.

Allah Knows best.
