How does Kuuthi handle Mal Mash (Leap Month)?

In the lunar-solar calendar, Mal Mash (Adhika Masa) occurs roughly every 32.5 solar months when a lunar month has no solar transit (Sankranti). Kuuthi's astronomical engine automatically calculates the intercalary month, labeling the leap cycle as Ahanba (e.g. Ahanba Inga) while preserving accurate festival alignment.
