How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sun 16 Dec? Shukla Chaturthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 39.9°: Shukla Chaturthi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 36°–48° is the 4th, Shukla Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:24 here. Tritiya ended at 23:29 Sat, before it. Chaturthi ends at 20:59, when the lead reaches 48°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 13 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sun 16 Dec? 04:43–05:34
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:43–05:34.
The night of Sat 15 Dec ran from sunset 17:45 Sat to sunrise 06:24, 12 h 39 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas

Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:42–12:28.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sun 16 Dec? 16:15–17:00
Dur Muhurtam is the 14th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 16:15–17:00.
Daylight here, 06:24 to 17:45, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Sunday is the 14th, 16:15–17:00.
Which choghadiya is good on Sun 16 Dec?
06:24–07:50 is Udvega, ruled by Surya (the Sun), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Sunday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 06:24 to 17:45, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 25 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:45 to 06:25 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 35 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 Sun 16 Dec? 16:20–17:45
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 8th of 8 equal parts of Sunday's daylight: 16:20–17:45.
When is Yamagandam on Sun 16 Dec? 12:05–13:30
Yamaganda is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Sunday's daylight: 12:05–13:30.

Daylight here runs 06:24 to 17:45, 11 h 21 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 25 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Sunday Rahu Kaal is the 8th part, Yamaganda the 5th and Gulikai Kalam the 7th.

Which nakshatra is it on Sun 16 Dec? Shravana
At sunrise the Moon was at 280.5°: Shravana, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Shravana spans 280°00′–293°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 280°. It leaves at 03:56 Mon, for Dhanishtha.
Which yoga is it on Sun 16 Dec? Vyaghata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 521.1°, one turn and 161.1°: Vyaghata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 240.6° + 280.5° = 521.1°, one full turn and 161.1°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 160°00′–173°20′ is the 13th, Vyaghata. It ends at 01:29 Mon, then Harshana.
Which karana is it on Sun 16 Dec? Vanija
At sunrise the lead was 39.9°: the first half of Chaturthi, Vanija.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija runs until 10:09, when the lead reaches 42°; Vishti until 20:59.
Which vara is Sun 16 Dec, and from when? Raviwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:24 on Sunday: Raviwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:24 to 06:25 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.
Which Hindu month is Sun 16 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 13 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 15 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 11 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Sun 16 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 13 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sun 16 Dec in? Vikram 2069 · Shaka 1934
Vikram Samvat 2069 began at the Chaitra new moon of 22 Mar 2012.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 22 Mar 2012, 15:37 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 262.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2069; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1934.

What time is moonrise on Sun 16 Dec? 09:11
The Moon rises here at 09:11.
