Rama Navami madhyahna muhurat: what time?
Why is Rama Navami on Mon 18 Apr in Pāthardi?
By the Dharmasindhu, Rama Navami is on Mon 18 Apr: Navami touches madhyahna on both days and it takes the later.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 11:13–13:44. Navami: 09:19 to 11:39 Mon.
Navami holds madhyahna only until 11:39; then Dashami. Navami: 09:19 Sun to 11:39.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Madhyahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Navami touches madhyahna on both days. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Mon 18 Apr, where it holds madhyahna until 11:39. Every reading takes that day.
The rule

Rama’s birth is celebrated at madhyahna, the middle fifth of the day.
