Why is Maha Shivratri on Sun 20 Feb in Ipameri?

Maha Shivratri is on Sun 20 Feb: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.

Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:03 Mon–00:49 Mon. Chaturdashi: 14:07 to 13:49 Mon.

Chaturdashi ended at 13:49; nishitha is Amavasya.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 14:07 on Sun 20 Feb to 13:49 on Mon 21 Feb, so only Sunday night’s nishitha (00:03 Mon–00:49 Mon) falls within it.

The rule

Phalguna Krishna Chaturdashi (purnimanta) · Magha Krishna Chaturdashi (amanta)

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta.

Smarta: the night whose nishitha Chaturdashi holds; when it touches both or neither, the later (Nirnayasindhu).
Vaishnava: the Smarta day.
