1218 All the four dates are of definite character. They all apply to the mode of expired years.
Among them two (nos. 5 & 6) apply to the Caitrādi system of years, while two dates (nos. 7 & 8) apply to the Kārttikādi system.
As for the system of months, two dates (nos. 7 & 8) falling in the dark fortnight, apply to the Amānta system,
Thus the results of these dates do not affect the overall results regarding the system of years. As for the system of months, the proportion is increased to a small extent.
