Why is Indira Ekadashi on Sat 2 Oct in Chahārbāgh?

Indira Ekadashi is on Sat 2 Oct: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 21:04 Fri to 21:11.

Ekadashi ended at 21:11 Sat; arunodaya is Dwadashi.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3:30). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 2 Oct only, at 06:02: Sat 2 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 21:04 Fri, before it (04:26–06:02).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 3 Oct, 06:03–17:47 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 21:11 on Sat 2 Oct to 20:30 on Sun 3 Oct; harivasara ends at 03:00. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 3 Oct, 06:03. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:47: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:24.

The rule

Ashwina Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Bhadrapada Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

Smarta
Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
Vaishnava
Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
Breaking the fast
on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
