Why is Utpanna Ekadashi on Fri 4 Dec in Indore?

Utpanna Ekadashi is on Fri 4 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 23:04 Thu to 23:45.

Ekadashi ended at 23:45 Fri; arunodaya is Dwadashi.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 4 Dec only, at 06:52: Fri 4 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 23:04 Thu, before it (05:16–06:52).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 5 Dec, 06:52–17:41 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 23:45 on Fri 4 Dec to 00:52 on Sun 6 Dec; harivasara ends at 06:02. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 5 Dec, 06:52. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 17:41: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:02.

The rule

Margashirsha Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Kartika Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)

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

Smarta
Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
Vaishnava
Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
Breaking the fast
on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
