Why is Dhanteras on Fri 25 Oct in Thazhecode?
Dhanteras is on Fri 25 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:03–20:30. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:22 to 20:30.
Dwadashi until 19:08, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 19:08 to 15:46 Sat.

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 19:08 on Fri 25 Oct to 15:46 on Sat 26 Oct, so it touches only Friday’s pradosha (18:03–20:30). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
