Why is Kamada Ekadashi on Sun 17 Apr in Ipameri?
Kamada Ekadashi is on Sun 17 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 14:48.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 14:48 Sat to 16:36.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 17 Apr only, at 06:22: Sun 17 Apr. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 14:48 Sat, before it (04:46–06:22).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 18 Apr, 06:22–18:01 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 16:36 on Sun 17 Apr to 18:49 on Mon 18 Apr; harivasara ends at 23:09 Sun. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 18 Apr, 06:22. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:01: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:42.
The rule
