Why is Diwali on Sun 24 Oct in Pāthardi?
Diwali · Lakshmi Puja is on Sun 24 Oct: Amavasya touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Lakshmi Puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:00–20:29. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:15 to 20:29.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Amavasya begins at 21:23. Amavasya: 21:23 to 19:41 Sun.
Amavasya holds pradosha only until 19:41; then Pratipada. Amavasya: 21:23 Sat to 19:41.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Lakshmi Puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Amavasya runs from 21:23 on Sat 23 Oct to 19:41 on Sun 24 Oct, so it touches only Sunday’s pradosha (18:00–20:29). Every reading takes that day.
