How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Mon 18 Jan? Shukla Navami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 106.4°: Shukla Navami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 96°–108° is the 9th, Shukla Navami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:36 here. Ashtami ended at 11:28 Sun, before it. Navami ends at 09:35, when the lead reaches 108°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 10 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Mon 18 Jan? 04:56–05:46
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:56–05:46.
The night of Sun 17 Jan ran from sunset 18:02 Sun to sunrise 06:36, 12 h 34 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Mon 18 Jan? 11:57–12:42
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:57–12:42.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Mon 18 Jan? 12:42–13:28
Dur Muhurtam is the 9th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:42–13:28 and 15:00–15:45.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Mon 18 Jan? 15:00–15:45
Dur Muhurtam is the 9th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:42–13:28 and 15:00–15:45.
Daylight here, 06:36 to 18:03, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Monday is the 9th and 12th, 12:42–13:28 and 15:00–15:45.
Which choghadiya is good on Mon 18 Jan?
06:36–08:02 is Amrita, ruled by Chandra (the Moon), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Monday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:36 to 18:03, 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, 18:03 to 06:36 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 34 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 Mon 18 Jan? 08:02–09:28
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Monday's daylight: 08:02–09:28.
When is Yamagandam on Mon 18 Jan? 10:54–12:19
Yamaganda is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Monday's daylight: 10:54–12:19.
When is Gulika Kalam on Mon 18 Jan? 13:45–15:11
Gulikai Kalam is the 6th of 8 equal parts of Monday's daylight: 13:45–15:11.
Daylight here runs 06:36 to 18:03, 11 h 27 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 25 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Monday Rahu Kaal is the 2nd part, Yamaganda the 4th and Gulikai Kalam the 6th.

Which nakshatra is it on Mon 18 Jan? Bharani
At sunrise the Moon was at 19.8°: Bharani, pada 2.
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 2 at 16°40′. It leaves at 18:17, for Krittika.
Which yoga is it on Mon 18 Jan? Sadhya
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 293.3°: Sadhya.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 273.5° + 19.8° = 293.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 280°00′–293°20′ is the 22nd, Sadhya. It ends at 06:38, then Shubha.
Which karana is it on Mon 18 Jan? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 106.4°: the second half of Navami, Kaulava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Navami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava ended at 22:30 Sun, when the lead reached 102°; Kaulava runs until 09:35.
Which vara is Mon 18 Jan, and from when? Somawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:36 on Monday: Somawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:36 to 06:36 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.
Which Hindu month is Mon 18 Jan in (amanta)? Pausha
This month began at the new moon of 10 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu: Pausha.
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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 14 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 8 Feb, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.
Which Hindu month is Mon 18 Jan in (purnimanta)? Pausha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Pausha.
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 10 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Mon 18 Jan 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, 10:36 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 298.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2072; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1937.
