A timestamp is a noun or noun phrase that says when something happens.
{qaStaHvIS ram} is not a timestamp, it is a subordinate clause. It has a
verb, and behaves like any other subordinate clause. The rules don't change
just because this particular subordinate clause also specifies when
something happens.

But the question is, whether the {qaStaHvIS ram} is indeed a timestamp,

How do you figure? {qaStaHvIS ram} isn't a timestamp, it's a clause. Like
with all clauses, your options are to put it either before or after the
main sentence:

{qaStaHvIS ram juHDaq maHaD maH vIghro' je}

and

{juHDaq maHaD maH vIghro' je qaStaHvIS ram}
