Why are some dates in Australia different from India?
A festival is fixed by the tithi at the right time of day (sunrise, sunset, moonrise and so on) in your own city. Australia is 4½ to 15½ hours away from India, so the same tithi can fall on a different local day. This month 8 of 21 days differ from India.
