When is Dussehra 2040 in Pāthardi?
Dussehra Aparahna puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Dussehra on Mon 15 Oct in Pāthardi?
Dussehra is on Mon 15 Oct: Dashami holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Navami; Dashami begins at 22:49.
Dashami holds all of aparahna, 13:25–15:45. Dashami: 22:49 Sun to 20:27.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Dussehra’s rites are done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Dashami runs from 22:49 on Sun 14 Oct to 20:27 on Mon 15 Oct, so only Monday’s aparahna (13:25–15:45) falls within it.
The rule

- Smarta

- Vaishnava
- the Smarta day.
