दशाब्दांघ्रिश्च पापानां शुभानां त्र्यंश एव हि । एकैकभे दशामानं विज्ञेयं द्विजसत्तम ॥ २१॥

The Dashas of the various Grahas have been specified above. In the case of malefic Grahas the Dasha span of one Nakshatr is ¼ of the Dasha of the Grah. It is 1/3rd in the case of benefics.

ततस्तद्यातभोगाध्यां भुक्तं भोग्यं च साधयेत् । विंशोत्तरीवदेवात्र ततस्तत्फलमादिशेत् ॥ २२॥

Thus the expired portion of the Dasha is calculated, according to the method, followed for Vimshottari Dasha, by multiplying the Bhayat, i.e. the expired period of the stay of Candr in the Janm Nakshatr, by the Dasha portion of the Janm Nakshatr and dividing it by Bhabhog, i.e. the total period of the stay of Candr in the Janm Nakshatr.

कृष्णपक्षे दिवा जन्म शुक्लपक्षे तथा निशि । तदा ह्यष्टोत्तरी चिन्त्या फलार्थञ्च विशेषतः ॥ २३॥

It will be advisable to adopt the Shodshottari, if the birth is in the day in Krishna Paksh (dark half of the month), or at night in Shukla Paksh (bright half).

english translation

चन्द्रहोरागते कृष्णे सूर्यहोरागते सिती । लग्ने नृणां फलज्ञप्त्यै विचिन्त्या षोडशोत्तरी ॥ २४॥

The Dasha may be adopted, when the Lagn is in the Hora of Candr with birth in the Krishna Paksh, or, when Lagn is in the Hora of Sūrya with birth in the Shukla Paksh.

पुष्यभाज्जन्मभं यावद् या संख्या गजतष्टिता । रविर्भौमो गुरुर्मन्दः केतुश्चन्द्रो बुधो भृगुः ॥ २५॥

Count the number of Nakshatras from Pushya to the Janm Nakshatr. Divide this number by 8. The remainder will indicate the Dashas of Sūrya, Mangal, Guru, Śani, Ketu, Candr, Budh and Śukr.
