Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 15:26 Fri to 18:00.

Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 10 Sep, 07:35–20:17 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 18:00 on Sat 9 Sep to 20:20 on Sun 10 Sep; harivasara ends at 00:35. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 10 Sep, 07:35. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 20:17: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:08.
