For an intentional throw into DBT, it is the time the ball enters DBT.
Speaking ASA 8.5.J (Intentionally carrying, kicking, pushing throwing into DBT)

"EFFECT: The ball is dead. Each runner is awarded two bases fro the last base touched at the time the fielder entered or the ball WAS KICKED, PUSHED OR THROWN into dead ball territory."

Not entered.

Now, here is a bit of relief and contradiction for I & J.

EFFECT - Section 5.I-L. The ball is dead and the umpire should award the runners the bases in his judgment they would have reached.
