My father's shradham tithi comes on Dhanu Masa (Margazhi Masam) Suklapaksha Shashti day. Accordingly, on which day the shradham to be conducted, on the 03.01.2017 or on the 04.01.2017. The doubt arises because as per the Panchangam, Shashti Tithi starts on 03.01 2017 from 03.42PM and ends on 04.01.2017 at 3.02 PM. When contacted a local Vadhyar, he said that the sraddham should be conducted on the 03.01.2017 and not on 04.01.2017. Please guide me for the correct date of shradham of my father. Please also clarify,for my awareness, how to decide on sraddha tithi for sraddhams when the particular Tithi is existing/extended to two days. Which date is to be taken for sraddhm?
