Why is Dussehra on Tue 21 Oct in Pāthardi?

By the Nirnayasindhu, Dussehra is on Tue 21 Oct: Dashami touches aparahna on both days and it takes the earlier.

Navami until 14:02, inside aparahna; then Dashami. Dashami: 14:02 to 16:02 Wed.

Dashami holds all of aparahna, 13:23–15:42. Dashami: 14:02 Tue to 16:02.

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 14:02 on Tue 21 Oct to 16:02 on Wed 22 Oct, touching aparahna on both days. When it does, the Nirnayasindhu takes the earlier day: Tue 21 Oct.

The rule
