How the date is determined
- The date is Phalguna Shukla Paksha Purnima; the month name is the same in the Amanta and Purnimanta systems.
- It falls on the day when this tithi prevails during Pradosh Kaal — the first fifth of the night after sunset.
- If the tithi prevails at that time on two consecutive days, the day on which it covers more of that period is taken.
- If the tithi does not touch that period on any day (a kshaya tithi), the Hindu day on which the tithi prevails longest is used.
- The ritual time window excludes Bhadra (Vishti karana).
- If Bhadra covers the whole period, the window shown starts when Bhadra ends.
- In a year with an Adhik month of the same name, it is observed in the regular (Nija) month.
Traditional variation
If Bhadra covers Pradosh, many Panchangs permit Holika Dahan in Bhadra Puchha or after Bhadra ends; follow local guidance.
This is the date given by the rule shown above for the selected place. It is not the only valid date: regional Panchangs, family customs and sampradayas may observe it on a different day.
Rule source: Tithi–kaal rule of the Dharmashastra digests (Nirnaya Sindhu / Dharma Sindhu), as applied by modern drik-ganita (computed) Panchangs
