Why is Dev Uthani Ekadashi on Fri 20 Nov in Santon?
Dev Uthani Ekadashi is on Fri 20 Nov: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 01:46 to 01:02 Sat.
Ekadashi ended at 01:02; arunodaya is Dwadashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 20 Nov only, at 07:55: Fri 20 Nov. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 01:46, before it (06:19–07:55).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 21 Nov, 07:57–16:10 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 01:02 on Sat 21 Nov to 23:27 on Sat 21 Nov; harivasara ends at 06:38. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 21 Nov, 07:57. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 16:10: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:36.
The rule

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.
