Dates are for Mumbai. A tithi that changes close to sunrise or sunset can fall a day earlier or later in another city, so for your own town open the festival in the app.
When it falls
14th day of the waxing moon, in Bhadrapada. Like every lunar festival it lands on a different Gregorian date each year. Muhurtha works the date out from the positions of the Sun and Moon, using the rule for this festival; see how every festival is dated.
The story
Vishnu is worshipped as Anant — endless — with a fourteen-knot thread tied on the wrist. It's also the last day of the Ganesh festival, when the big immersions happen.
How it is kept
Anant Sutra puja at home; in Mumbai, the final Ganpati processions to the sea.
