By the Dharmasindhu, Janmashtami is on Sat 1 Sep: Ashtami touches nishitha on both nights and it takes the later.

Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 23:31 on Fri 31 Aug to 01:27 on Sun 2 Sep, touching nishitha on both nights. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Sat 1 Sep. Every reading takes that day.
