Hanuman Jayanti is Chaitra Shukla Purnima — the Purnima of the shukla fortnight of Chaitra. It is kept at sunrise, so the date is the day that tithi is running the tithi that is running when the sun comes up.
Computed from the Moon’s elongation with the Swiss Ephemeris, sidereal, Lahiri ayanamsa. A tithi begins and ends at a real minute rather than at midnight, which is why the moment above decides the day — and why the same tithi read at a different hour can name a different date.
