How the time is chosen
Kartika Amavasya (amanta: Ashwina) during pradosh kaal, the time of Lakshmi Puja. If Amavasya covers the pradosh of two evenings, the second is taken when Amavasya lasts at least 1 ghati (24 minutes) after that sunset.
The puja muhurat is the part of pradosh kaal in which the fixed (sthir) Vrishabha lagna rises at Kolkata — traditionally linked with Lakshmi staying (sthir) in the home.
