My father passed away due to Corona, as adiyen was also suffering from Corona, could not perform any last rites. My elder brother did all the thirteen-day rites. After a month, under the guidance of our spiritual advisor performed tharpanam for ten days but it still worries me that I did not perform the final rites. Are there any atonements for this?

As the elder brother had performed the required oblations and other prescribed duties had been observed as per the family vaadyar’s advice, there is no need for any more atonements in this regard.
Notes:
Being contrite for not performing the rites is an atonement. A younger brother needs to perform Udakadanam. Having done that there is nothing more.
