NYC Holdover 6 months Max. Stay

So tenancy was terminated with a 30 day notice as of April, 30th. I skipped mediation and went to court 3 times already. Next appearance is scheduled for 9/30, by which it will be the 5th month for holdover.
My question is, a NYC judge can give maximum of 6 months to the tenant to move. Is it from the commencement of the case (May in my case) or the date the decision is made (9/30)?
The city website doesn't mention it and I found this from two lawyers' websites but they are contradictory.
See below:
"A Judge has the power to award a Tenant up to six months to stay in the apartment, from the date of the commencement of the proceeding."

"The Court may then give you an extension, but not beyond six months from the time your case was decided."
