Why is Dhanteras on Sun 20 Oct in Chahārbāgh?
Dhanteras is on Sun 20 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:25–20:00. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:38 to 20:00.
Dwadashi until 17:56, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 17:56 to 14:38 Mon.
Trayodashi ended at 14:38; pradosha is Chaturdashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3:30). 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 17:56 on Sun 20 Oct to 14:38 on Mon 21 Oct, so it touches only Sunday’s pradosha (17:25–20:00). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
