They fast when it's their time
On many occasions. Some times on a particular day of the week, sometimes on the full-moon day, sometimes during the worship of a particular God or Goddess (like the nine-day partial fast during the worship of the Mother Goddess Durga), sometimes during a month considered auspicious, or in memory of their ancestors. Fasts are accompanied by acts of charity.
