In other words a tithi is the time taken for the Moon's elongation (on the ecliptic plane) to increase by 12°. A tithi is one fifteenth of a pakṣa and one thirtieth of a cāndramāsa. A tithi corresponds to the concept of a lunar day. Tithi have Sanskrit numbers according by their position in the pakṣa, i.e. prathama (first), dvitīya (second
In other words, a tithi is a time duration between the consecutive epochs that correspond to when the longitudinal angle between the Sun and the Moon is an integer multiple of 12°. Tithis begin at varying times of day and vary in duration approximately from 19 to 26 hours. [2] Every day of a lunar month is called tithi.
Tithi - Ending Moment (EM) of elongation of the Moon, the lunar day, the angular relationship between Sun and Moon ( Apparent Moon minus Apparent Sun). One Tithi equals 12 degree difference between Moon and Sun. Nakshatram - EM of asterism of the day, that is, the stellar mansion in which Moon is located for an observer at the center of the ...
A karaṇa is half of a tithi. To be precise, a karaṇa is the time required for the angular distance between the Sun and the Moon to increase in steps of 6° starting from 0°. (Compare with the definition of a tithi.) Since the tithis are 30 in number, and since 1 tithi = 2 karaṇas, therefore one would logically expect there to be 60 ...
tithi Time for 12° increase of longitudinal angle between Moon and Sun ≈ 1 day (varies 19–26 hours) pakṣa (lunar fortnight) 15 tithis: ≈ 15 days māsa (lunar month) 2 pakṣas: gaura (bright) or śukla pakṣa during waxing moon; kṛṣṇa (dark) pakṣa during waning moon: ≈ 30 days (29.5 days) ṛitu (season) 2 māsas: ≈ 60 ...

[11] The Confirmed Order Lead Time (OLT Confirmed) represents the time between the Order Entry Date and the by the supplier confirmed delivery date of goods. [11]
