THE CHRONOLOGICAL SYSTEMS OF GUJARAT
V. 1297 expired Kārttikādi : Pūrņimānta : suppressed between sunrise
on Sunday, 3 March, A.C. 1241 and sunrise on the next
day Amānta : Tuesday, 2 April, A.C. 1241 The given date would correspond to the given week-day according to the expired Caitrādi Pārņimānta system. But the given tithi is found to be suppressed according to local sunrise as well as mean sunrise in the Sūrya Siddhānta. But according to the Brahma Siddhānta it commenced 46 m. 42 se. before local sunrise and would, therefore, apply to the given weekday.
However, it is probable that the year was Kārttikādi rather than Caitrādi. In that case the given date would correspond to Monday, 1 April, A.C. 1241. But as it commenced about 11 h. after mean sunrise on that day, it may be taken as ascribed to the previous week-day on which it commenced. 116. V. 1300-JDPLS., Part i, No. 514, Visnagar image
