Holi is on Wed 14 Mar: Pratipada holds sunrise that day.

Pratipada at sunrise, 06:05. Pratipada: 23:14 Tue to 01:01 Thu.

Pratipada ended at 01:01; sunrise at 06:05 is Dwitiya.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

Holi follows the tithi at sunrise. Pratipada runs from 23:14 on Tue 13 Mar to 01:01 on Thu 15 Mar, so it holds sunrise only on Wed 14 Mar, at 06:05.
