Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 11 Oct, 12:39–19:25 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 06:44 on Sat 11 Oct to 06:23 on Sun 12 Oct; harivasara ends at 12:39. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:25: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:22, which here ends before harivasara does.
