Why is Amalaki Ekadashi on Wed 19 Mar in Ipameri?
Amalaki Ekadashi is on Wed 19 Mar: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 13:20.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 13:20 Tue to 15:47.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 19 Mar only, at 06:16: Wed 19 Mar. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 13:20 Tue, before it (04:40–06:16).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 20 Mar, 06:16–18:23 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 15:47 on Wed 19 Mar to 18:25 on Thu 20 Mar; harivasara ends at 22:27 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 20 Mar, 06:16. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:23: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:42.
