How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 26 Dec? Shukla Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 132.7°: 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, 06:02 here. Ekadashi ended at 04:24, before it. Dwadashi ends at 06:48 Sun, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does Dwadashi hold two sunrises?
Dwadashi holds the sunrises of both Sat 26 and Sun 27 Dec here.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwadashi began at 04:24, before sunrise at 06:02, and ends at 06:48 Sun, after the next sunrise at 06:02 Sun. Both days read Dwadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 26 Dec? 04:22–05:12
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:22–05:12.
The night of Fri 25 Dec ran from sunset 17:32 Fri to sunrise 06:02, 12 h 30 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 26 Dec? 06:48–07:34

Daylight here, 06:02 to 17:33, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 06:02–06:48 and 06:48–07:34.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 26 Dec?
06:02–07:28 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 06:02 to 17:33, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 26 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:33 to 06:02 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 33 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 08:55–10:21.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 26 Dec? Bharani
At sunrise the Moon was at 23.2°: Bharani, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Bharani spans 13°20′–26°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 20°. It leaves at 13:05, for Krittika.
Which yoga is it on Sat 26 Dec? Siddha
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 273.6°: Siddha.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 250.4° + 23.2° = 273.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 266°40′–280°00′ is the 21st, Siddha. It ends at 17:54, then Sadhya.
Which karana is it on Sat 26 Dec? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 132.7°: 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 17:39, when the lead reaches 138°; Balava until 06:48 Sun.
Which vara is Sat 26 Dec, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:02 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:02 to 06:02 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 26 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 15 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.
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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 16 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 13 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 26 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.
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 15 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 26 Dec in? Vikram 2077 · Shaka 1942
Vikram Samvat 2077 began at the Chaitra new moon of 24 Mar 2020.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 24 Mar 2020, 17:28 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 270.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2077; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1942.
