Pitru Paksha begins is on Thu 18 Sep: Pratipada holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 21:49.
Pratipada holds all of aparahna, 13:10–15:38. Pratipada: 21:49 Wed to 20:43.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3:25). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The first shraddha of Pitru Paksha is done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Pratipada runs from 21:49 on Wed 17 Sep to 20:43 on Thu 18 Sep, so only Thursday’s aparahna (13:10–15:38) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
