Why is Papamochani Ekadashi on Sun 15 Mar in Pāthardi?
Papamochani Ekadashi is on Sun 15 Mar: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 08:11. Ekadashi: 08:11 to 09:17 Sun.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 08:11 Sat to 09:17.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 15 Mar only, at 06:37: Sun 15 Mar. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 08:11 Sat, before it (05:01–06:37).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 16 Mar, 06:36–09:41
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 09:17 on Sun 15 Mar to 09:41 on Mon 16 Mar; harivasara ends at 15:23 Sun. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 16 Mar, 06:36.
The rule
Chaitra Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Phalguna Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)
The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
- Smarta
- Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
- Breaking the fast
- on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
