Why can the date differ from India?

A tithi is a 12° step of the Moon's elongation from the Sun. It begins and ends at a single instant everywhere on Earth. What changes by location is whether the moment the rule points at — sunrise, sunset or moonrise — falls inside that window on a given local date. That is why the shift runs opposite to the timezone: places west of India can observe a day earlier, places east a day later.

Why your date differs

Same day as India, 6 different times across 6 cities in Australia — and that is the same reason a kundli cast in IST is wrong for a birth abroad.

The date matches India this year, but Local Timings does not: it runs from 04:52 in one city to 06:07 in another, because the muhurat is derived from each city's own coordinates rather than reprinted from India's clock. A birth chart works the same way: the houses are cut by the exact moment and place of birth, so a chart assembled on Indian Standard Time for a birth in Australia shifts every house boundary, and with it the dasha dates that follow.

We compute from the real coordinates and the real UTC offset in force on that date — including the historical rule changes most software gets wrong. You can check ours for free.
