Why is Sharad Purnima on Sat 15 Oct in Pāthardi?
Sharad Purnima is on Sat 15 Oct: Purnima holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Chaturdashi; Purnima begins at 13:25 Sat.
Purnima holds all of nishitha, 23:50–00:39 Sun. Purnima: 13:25 to 09:53 Sun.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Sharad Purnima’s night centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Purnima runs from 13:25 on Sat 15 Oct to 09:53 on Sun 16 Oct, so only Saturday night’s nishitha (23:50–00:39 Sun) falls within it. No text giving Sharad Purnima’s time was found; nishitha is Tithika’s convention.
