Parama Ekadashi is the second and last Ekadashi of Adhik Maas. This year, Adhik Maas falls in the month of Jyeshtha, which is why, according to the calendar, the Parama Ekadashi fast will be observed on the Ekadashi date of the Krishna Paksha of Jyeshtha Adhik Maas. However, there is confusion among people regarding the date. People are confused whether the fast will be observed on June 11th or June 12th. If you are also confused about the date of Parama Ekadashi, here's how to find the correct date and auspicious time for the fast.

As such, Ekadashi Tithi will be in effect throughout the day, along with the Udayatithi on June 11, so the Parama Ekadashi fast will be observed on June 11.
