Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 2 Feb, 07:03–16:26
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 14:02 on Wed 1 Feb to 16:26 on Thu 2 Feb; harivasara ends at 20:38 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 2 Feb, 07:03. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:19.
