Pratipada holds all of aparahna, 14:21–16:54. Pratipada: 11:32 to 10:52 Thu.
Pratipada ended at 10:52; aparahna is Dwitiya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4:30). 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 11:32 on Wed 6 Sep to 10:52 on Thu 7 Sep, so only Wednesday’s aparahna (14:21–16:54) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
