Why is Aja Ekadashi on Mon 7 Sep in Chahārbāgh?
Aja Ekadashi is on Mon 7 Sep: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 17:29.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 17:29 Sun to 15:04.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 7 Sep only, at 05:43: Mon 7 Sep. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 17:29 Sun, before it (04:07–05:43).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 8 Sep, 05:43–12:43
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 15:04 on Mon 7 Sep to 12:43 on Tue 8 Sep; harivasara ends at 20:29 Mon. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 8 Sep, 05:43. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:16.
