Why is Karwa Chauth on Wed 1 Nov in Vapi?

Karwa Chauth is on Wed 1 Nov: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 20:02 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 21:30. Chaturthi: 21:30 to 21:19 Wed.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:55. Chaturthi: 21:30 Tue to 21:19.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 21:30 on Tue 31 Oct to 21:19 on Wed 1 Nov, so it holds moonrise only on Wed 1 Nov, at 20:55.

The rule

Kartika Krishna Chaturthi (purnimanta) · Ashwina Krishna Chaturthi (amanta)

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise.

Smarta: the night whose moonrise Chaturthi holds; when it touches both, the earlier; when neither, the later (Dharmasindhu).
Vaishnava: the Smarta day.
