166. This is Lankā time. If now we wish to know the ending moment of the tithi in true local time, say at Madras (Lat. 13°), all we have to do is to apply the figure entered in the column "Total correction" under Madras (Lat. 13°) against the 92nd day of the Solar Year in Tab. XIII. The correction being + 2095 seconds or + 87 palas, that is + 1 ghat. 27 palas, the ending moment of Sukla ashtami, 14 July 1910, at Madras, is (52 ghat. + 1 ghat. 27palas =) 53 ghat. 27 palas. The "College" Panchāngam gives 52 ghat. 33 palas.
