📜 How this date was determined
Amavasya pervades pradosh kaal on one day only (100% of the window). Lakshmi puja is performed in pradosh, so Amavasya must pervade the dusk window. When Amavasya touches pradosh on two evenings, the later is taken.
Computed by Trikaal Vaani from Swiss Ephemeris and the classical nirnaya rules — Nirnaya Sindhu, Dharma Sindhu, and the Report of the Calendar Reform Committee. Not copied from another calendar.
