Thus 13 h. 11 m. after sunrise is the absolutely accurate ending time of the tithi.

(c) The beginning of the tithi, Jyeshṭha śuk. 5. Now for the beginning. 1463 (the original . as found) − 1333 (beginning of the tithi, (Table VIII.) = 130 = (Table X.) (7 h. 5 m. + 2 h. 8 m.) = 9 h. 13 m.; and we have this as the point of time before sunrise on Wednesday when the tithi begins.
