Why is Papankusha Ekadashi on Sun 1 Oct in Pāthardi?
Papankusha Ekadashi is on Sun 1 Oct: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:36 to 02:44 Mon.
Ekadashi ended at 02:44; arunodaya is Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 01:36 Sun to 02:44.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 1 Oct only, at 06:19: Sun 1 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:36, before it (04:43–06:19).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 2 Oct, 08:50–18:16 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:44 on Mon 2 Oct to 03:09 on Tue 3 Oct; harivasara ends at 08:50. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:16: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:43, which here ends before harivasara does.
The rule

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
