One row per day, on one clock (UTC+9). 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 03:08 on Mon 8 Sep to 00:42 on Tue 9 Sep, so only Monday’s aparahna (12:50–15:22) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
