How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Fri 18 Mar? Shukla Dashami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 119.3°: 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, 06:13 here. Navami ended at 07:32 Thu, before it. Dashami ends at 07:38, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Mar, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Fri 18 Mar? 04:37–05:25
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:37–05:25.
The night of Thu 17 Mar ran from sunset 18:16 Thu to sunrise 06:13, 11 h 57 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas

When is Dur Muhurtam on Fri 18 Mar? 12:39–13:27
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th and 9th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 08:37–09:26 and 12:39–13:27.
Daylight here, 06:13 to 18:17, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Friday is the 4th and 9th, 08:37–09:26 and 12:39–13:27.
Which choghadiya is good on Fri 18 Mar?
06:13–07:43 is Chara, ruled by Shukra (Venus), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Friday's daylight, counted neutral.
Daylight here, 06:13 to 18:17, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 30 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:17 to 06:11 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 29 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 Fri 18 Mar? Punarvasu
At sunrise the Moon was at 93.2°: Punarvasu, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Punarvasu spans 80°00′–93°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 90°. It leaves at 06:33, for Pushya.
Which yoga is it on Fri 18 Mar? Atiganda
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 427.1°, one turn and 67.1°: Atiganda.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 333.9° + 93.2° = 427.1°, one full turn and 67.1°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 66°40′–80°00′ is the 6th, Atiganda. It ends at 05:00 Sat, then Sukarma.
Which karana is it on Fri 18 Mar? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 119.3°: the second half of Dashami, Garaja.
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 ended at 19:30 Thu, when the lead reached 114°; Garaja runs until 07:38.
Which vara is Fri 18 Mar, and from when? Shukrawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:13 on Friday: Shukrawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:13 to 06:11 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.
Which Hindu month is Fri 18 Mar in (amanta)? Phalguna
This month began at the new moon of 9 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha: Phalguna.
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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Apr, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.
Which Hindu month is Fri 18 Mar in (purnimanta)? Phalguna
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Phalguna.
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 9 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha, began Phalguna. This Shukla paksha reads Phalguna in both counts.
Which samvat year is Fri 18 Mar in? Vikram 2072 · Shaka 1937
Vikram Samvat 2072 began at the Chaitra new moon of 20 Mar 2015.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2015, 13:06 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 358.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2072; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1937.
