Ekadashi ended at 01:50; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:10 Thu to 01:50.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 18 May only, at 05:41: Thu 18 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:10, before it (04:05–05:41).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 19 May, 07:33–20:12 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:50 on Fri 19 May to 00:41 on Sat 20 May; harivasara ends at 07:33. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:12: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:34.
