How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Fri 13 May? Shukla Saptami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 82.5°: Shukla Saptami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 72°–84° is the 7th, Shukla Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:02 here. Shashthi ended at 09:05 Thu, before it. Saptami ends at 09:10, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 6 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Fri 13 May? 04:42–05:22
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:42–05:22.
The night of Thu 12 May ran from sunset 20:02 Thu to sunrise 06:02, 10 h 0 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 40 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

When is Dur Muhurtam on Fri 13 May? 13:31–14:27

Which nakshatra is it on Fri 13 May? Ashlesha
At sunrise the Moon was at 111.1°: 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 22:56, for Magha.
Which yoga is it on Fri 13 May? Vriddhi
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 139.7°: Vriddhi.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 28.6° + 111.1° = 139.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 133°20′–146°40′ is the 11th, Vriddhi. It ends at 18:12, then Dhruva.
Which karana is it on Fri 13 May? Vanija
At sunrise the lead was 82.5°: the second half of Saptami, Vanija.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Saptami is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 21:01 Thu, when the lead reached 78°; Vanija runs until 09:10.
Which vara is Fri 13 May, and from when? Shukrawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:02 on Friday: Shukrawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:02 to 06:02 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.
Which Hindu month is Fri 13 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 6 May, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 14 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 5 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Fri 13 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Vaishakha.
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 6 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Fri 13 May 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, 15:53 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 34.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2073; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1938.
