Why is Parama Ekadashi on Mon 9 Apr in Pāthardi?
Parama Ekadashi is on Mon 9 Apr: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 15:46.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 15:46 Sun to 17:39.

Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 10 Apr, 06:15–18:45 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:39 on Mon 9 Apr to 19:51 on Tue 10 Apr; harivasara ends at 00:12. So parana runs from sunrise on Tue 10 Apr, 06:15. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:45: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:45.
