Why is Padmini Ekadashi on Mon 25 Mar in Sevan?

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 22:30 Sun to 00:37 Tue.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 25 Mar only, at 06:54: Mon 25 Mar. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 22:30 Sun, before it (05:18–06:54).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 26 Mar, 07:13–19:18 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:37 on Tue 26 Mar to 02:59 on Wed 27 Mar; harivasara ends at 07:13. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:18: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:22.
