Why is Karwa Chauth on Thu 29 Oct in Vapi?

Karwa Chauth is on Thu 29 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 19:50 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 01:07 Thu.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:52. Chaturthi: 01:07 to 22:10.

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

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 01:07 on Thu 29 Oct to 22:10 on Thu 29 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Thu 29 Oct, at 20:52.

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.
