Why is Maha Shivratri on Mon 22 Feb in Sevan?

By the Nirnayasindhu, Maha Shivratri is on Mon 22 Feb: Chaturdashi touches nishitha on both nights and it takes the later.

Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:47 Mon–01:39 Mon. Chaturdashi: 00:24 Mon to 01:07 Tue.

Chaturdashi holds nishitha only until 01:07 Tue; then Amavasya. Chaturdashi: 00:24 to 01:07 Tue.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.

Chaturdashi touches nishitha on both nights. When it does, the Nirnayasindhu takes the later day: Mon 22 Feb, where it holds nishitha until 01:07 Tue.

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.
