Part B of Book 5 deals with three significant matters, the Birth Time Rectification, Naṣṭajātakam and the birth in different time elements. Accurate assessment of a Janmakuṇḍalī is dependent on accurate birth time. However, not in all cases, the birth time is accurately recorded. Unless there is someone present to record the birth time for casting Jyotiṣa Kuṇḍalī, likely, the birth time is off by 5 to 30 minutes. Even though this is an important topic, a structured method of rectifying the birthtime is hardly found. The Jyotiṣa classical texts contain several principles to verify the Lagna; however, there is a general lack of a systematic approach to bring them together under one umbrella. Maharṣi Parāśara talks about Prāṇapada and the birth of humans, Praśnamārga talks about Kunda, Maharṣi Jaimini talks about Janmavighaṭi, Uttarakālāmṛta talks about the method of determining male or female birth. Other classics such as Jyotiṣa Siddhāntammu talks about Tattva and Antartattva correction, which is based on Svaraśāstra. The book provides a structured approach to integrate these principles to arrive at the rectified birth time.
