How the date is determined
- The date is Bhadrapada Shukla Paksha Tritiya; the month name is the same in the Amanta and Purnimanta systems.
- It falls on the day when this tithi prevails during Pratahkal — the first fifth of the daytime (sunrise to sunset).
- If the tithi prevails at that time on two consecutive days, the day on which it covers more of that period is taken.
- When the tithi touches that period on two days, the later day, joined with the following tithi, is taken (this festival's own rule).
- 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.
- In a year with an Adhik month of the same name, it is observed in the regular (Nija) month.
Traditional variation
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: Pratahkal Tritiya; Hartalika is kept Chaturthi-viddha, never Dwitiya-viddha (Nirnaya Sindhu, Hartalika-nirnaya), so the later of two days. Published almanac: 14 Sep 2026.
Traditions may vary by region and Panchang convention. Times are shown for the selected place, time zone and calculation profile.
