Why End Date Varies in Purattasi Month This Year? - Reason

- This year, Aippasi Month starts at 5,48 pm IST on October 17, 2024 (Thursday Evening). Sun Rises at 6.10 am IST on Oct 17th. When sunrise time is considered, the start time of Aippasi month is taken as 5.58 pm IST (i.e., 10 minutes added)

- Sun Sets in Tirunelveli at 5.59 pm IST on Oct 17th i.e., 1 minute after the start of Aippasi month. So the 1st day of Aipasi month is taken as October 17th (this makes the last date of Puratasi month as October 16th)

- When moving Northwards, the Sunset happens before 5.59 pm IST on Oct 17th (i.e., Sunset occurs before start of Aippasi month). Therefore in other Panchangam, the next day i.e., Oct 18th is taken as 1st day of Aippasi Month (this makes the last date of Purattasi month as October 17th)
