Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Tue 1 Oct in Pāthardi?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Tue 1 Oct: Pratipada holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 23:40.
Pratipada holds all of aparahna, 13:30–15:53. Pratipada: 23:40 Mon to 20:12.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). 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 23:40 on Mon 30 Sep to 20:12 on Tue 1 Oct, so only Tuesday’s aparahna (13:30–15:53) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
