Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 17 Oct only, at 07:13: Wed 17 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:53, before it (05:37–07:13).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 18 Oct, 11:33–18:15 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:08 on Thu 18 Oct to 06:48 on Fri 19 Oct; harivasara ends at 11:33. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:15: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:26, which here ends before harivasara does.
