Dasara (Vijayadashami) 2026 in Christchurch (New Zealand) is on Wednesday 21 October 2026; in India it is on Tuesday 20 October 2026, because Christchurch's local day reaches the deciding tithi on a different calendar date. The Vijayadashami tithi (Sukla Dasami) runs from 20 October 2026 8:20 PM to 21 October 2026 9:42 PM Christchurch time. The date is fixed by the tithi at afternoon (fourth fifth of daylight), which in Christchurch on that day is 2:35 PM – 5:18 PM. Check of the rule: 20 October 2026: afternoon 2:35 PM–5:17 PM, tithi covers 0%; 21 October 2026: afternoon 2:35 PM–5:18 PM, tithi covers 100%; 22 October 2026: afternoon 2:35 PM–5:18 PM, tithi covers 0%.
