Karva Chauth dates
Computed year by year from the Moon and the Sun. Each row shows the tithi the festival sits on and the lunar month in both the amanta and purnimanta reckonings, because the two name the same month differently during krishna paksha.
Also called: Karaka Chaturthi, Karwa Chauth

The rule
What the date is derived from, stated so you can check it.
Krishna Chaturthi of amanta Ashwina, called Kartika Krishna Chaturthi in the north. The fast breaks at moonrise, so moonrise rather than sunrise settles the day.
The day is settled by the tithi at moonrise.
