How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 16 Jul? Shukla Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 132.2°: Shukla Dwadashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 132°–144° is the 12th, Shukla Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:05 here. Ekadashi ended at 04:38, before it. Dwadashi ends at 06:02 Sun, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 4 Jul, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does Dwadashi hold two sunrises?
Dwadashi holds the sunrises of both Sat 16 and Sun 17 Jul here.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwadashi began at 04:38, before sunrise at 05:05, and ends at 06:02 Sun, after the next sunrise at 05:06 Sun. Both days read Dwadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 16 Jul? 03:50–04:28
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:50–04:28.
The night of Fri 15 Jul ran from sunset 19:42 Fri to sunrise 05:05, 9 h 23 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:05 to 19:42, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 05:05–06:04 and 06:04–07:02.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 16 Jul?
05:05–06:55 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 05:05 to 19:42, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 49 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 19:42 to 05:06 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 10 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 16 Jul? Anuradha
At sunrise the Moon was at 221.9°: Anuradha, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Anuradha spans 213°20′–226°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 220°. It leaves at 14:26, for Jyeshtha.
Which yoga is it on Sat 16 Jul? Shukla
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 311.6°: Shukla.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 89.7° + 221.9° = 311.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 306°40′–320°00′ is the 24th, Shukla. It ends at 20:21, then Brahma.
Which karana is it on Sat 16 Jul? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 132.2°: the first half of Dwadashi, Bava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 17:24, when the lead reaches 138°; Balava until 06:02 Sun.
Which vara is Sat 16 Jul, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:05 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:05 to 05:06 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 16 Jul in (amanta)? Ashadha
This month began at the new moon of 4 Jul, with the Sun in Mithuna: Ashadha.
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: Mithuna gives Ashadha. The Sun enters Karka on 16 Jul, inside the month. The next new moon, 3 Aug, finds it in Karka and begins Shravana.
Which Hindu month is Sat 16 Jul in (purnimanta)? Ashadha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Ashadha.
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 4 Jul, with the Sun in Mithuna, began Ashadha. This Shukla paksha reads Ashadha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 16 Jul 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 95.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2073; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1938.
