Why is Dhanteras on Sun 20 Oct in Pāthardi?
Dhanteras is on Sun 20 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). 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 19:56 on Sun 20 Oct to 16:38 on Mon 21 Oct, so it touches only Sunday’s pradosha (18:03–20:31). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
