Why is Holika Dahan on Tue 16 Mar in Sevan?

Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 00:46 Wed–01:51 Wed.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 19:07–21:31. Purnima: 17:44 to 15:23 Wed.
Purnima ended at 15:23; pradosha is Pratipada.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Holika is burnt in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset, outside bhadra. Purnima runs from 17:44 on Tue 16 Mar to 15:23 on Wed 17 Mar, so only Tuesday’s pradosha (19:07–21:31) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 04:31 Wed, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 00:46 Wed–01:51 Wed, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
