Full panchang for Thu 2 Oct in Pāthardi

Why is Durga Ashtami on Thu 2 Oct in Pāthardi?

Durga Ashtami is on Thu 2 Oct: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.

Sunrise at 06:19 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 13:49.

Ashtami at sunrise, 06:20. Ashtami: 13:49 Wed to 12:08.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise. Ashtami runs from 13:49 on Wed 1 Oct to 12:08 on Thu 2 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Thu 2 Oct, at 06:20. No text giving Durga Ashtami’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Ashwina Shukla Ashtami

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise.

Smarta
the day Ashtami holds at sunrise: Tithika’s convention, since no text gives the time.
Vaishnava
the Smarta day.
