Dhanteras is on Fri 17 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:01–20:23. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:55 to 20:23.
Dwadashi until 20:06, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 20:06 to 17:40 Sat.
Trayodashi ended at 17:40; pradosha is Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 20:06 Fri to 17:40.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Dhanteras puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 20:06 on Fri 17 Oct to 17:40 on Sat 18 Oct, so it touches only Friday’s pradosha (18:01–20:23). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
