Every time is computed for the city's own coordinates and time zone (daylight saving applied); nothing is converted from IST. The last column is the part of the day the rule judges, afternoon (fourth fifth of daylight); the date is the day the tithi covers it. It is the window the tradition names for the observance, not a separately chosen muhurtham; we do not print other muhurthams because we have not verified them.

How the date is decided

Ashwayuja sukla navami prevailing in the afternoon (aparahna); the day with the larger coverage wins, and if equal the first, ashtami-viddha day (Dharma Sindhu: puja and upavasa on the ashtami-viddha navami). Ayudha Puja the same day.

Some calendars print Maha Navami on the day navami is current at sunrise, which can be the same day as Vijayadashami. The date here follows the day navami covers the afternoon, the ashtami-viddha navami of Dharma Sindhu, as telugucalendar.org and prokerala.com do.
