For Tourist Visa the date of arrival in India or date of departure from US

Which date should I Count as the First date for 1 month Visa?

https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/visa/tvoa.html

The ETV is valid for 30 days upon your arrival in India.

It will cost $60 + 2.5% in fees for US Passport holders.

Any other questions you have can be answered in the link above.
