Fri 14 Jan. The Sun enters Makara at 12:39; the punya kala is the 40 ghatis (16 h) from then, to 04:39 Sat.
Sat 15 Jan. The Sun does not enter Makara this day.
The Sun enters Makara at 12:39, between sunrise (06:09) and sunset (17:43). The Dharmasindhu’s punya kala is the 40 ghatis after the ingress, so the bath and gifts fall that day: Fri 14 Jan.
