How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 16 Apr? Shukla Dashami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 110.5°: Shukla Dashami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 108°–120° is the 10th, Shukla Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:40 here. Navami ended at 00:33, before it. Dashami ends at 01:48 Sun, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 Apr, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 16 Apr? 04:14–04:57
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:14–04:57.
The night of Fri 15 Apr ran from sunset 18:55 Fri to sunrise 05:40, 10 h 45 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Sat 16 Apr? 11:51–12:44
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:51–12:44.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 16 Apr? 05:40–06:33
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 05:40–06:33 and 06:33–07:26.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 16 Apr? 06:33–07:26
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 05:40–06:33 and 06:33–07:26.
Daylight here, 05:40 to 18:56, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 53 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 05:40–06:33 and 06:33–07:26.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 16 Apr?
05:40–07:19 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 05:40 to 18:56, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 39 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:56 to 05:38 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 20 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Sat 16 Apr? 08:59–10:38
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 08:59–10:38.
When is Yamagandam on Sat 16 Apr? 13:57–15:37

When is Gulika Kalam on Sat 16 Apr? 05:40–07:19

Daylight here runs 05:40 to 18:56, 13 h 16 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 39 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Saturday Rahu Kaal is the 3rd part, Yamaganda the 6th and Gulikai Kalam the 1st.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 16 Apr? Ashlesha
At sunrise the Moon was at 112.7°: Ashlesha, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ashlesha spans 106°40′–120°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 110°. It leaves at 19:47, for Magha.
Which yoga is it on Sat 16 Apr? Shula
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 115°: Shula.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 2.3° + 112.7° = 115°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 14:40, then Ganda.
Which karana is it on Sat 16 Apr? Taitila
At sunrise the lead was 110.5°: the first half of Dashami, Taitila.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 13:06, when the lead reaches 114°; Garaja until 01:48 Sun.
Which vara is Sat 16 Apr, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:40 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:40 to 05:38 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 16 Apr in (amanta)? Chaitra
This month began at the new moon of 7 Apr, with the Sun in Meena: Chaitra.
An amanta month runs from new moon to new moon and takes its name from the rashi the Sun is in at the new moon that begins it: Meena gives Chaitra. The Sun enters Mesha on 13 Apr, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 May, finds it in Mesha and begins Vaishakha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 16 Apr in (purnimanta)? Chaitra
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Chaitra.
A purnimanta month runs from full moon to full moon, so its waning half comes first. It shares its name with the amanta month that its second half falls in: the new moon of 7 Apr, with the Sun in Meena, began Chaitra. This Shukla paksha reads Chaitra in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 16 Apr in? Vikram 2073 · Shaka 1938
Vikram Samvat 2073 began at the Chaitra new moon of 7 Apr 2016.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2016, 19:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 8.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2073; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1938.

What time is moonrise on Sat 16 Apr? 13:29
