How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 16 Feb? Shukla Navami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 101.6°: 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, 06:32 here. Ashtami ended at 19:56 Mon, before it. Navami ends at 18:34, when the lead reaches 108°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 8 Feb, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 16 Feb? 04:53–05:43
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:53–05:43.
The night of Mon 15 Feb ran from sunset 18:15 Mon to sunrise 06:32, 12 h 17 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 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: 12:00–12:47.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 16 Feb? 08:52–09:39
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:52–09:39, and the 7th of the night's 15, 23:09–23:59.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 16 Feb? 23:09–23:59
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:52–09:39, and the 7th of the night's 15, 23:09–23:59.
Daylight here, 06:32 to 18:15, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Tuesday is the 4th and the night's 7th, 08:52–09:39 and 23:09–23:59.
Which choghadiya is good on Tue 16 Feb?
06:32–08:00 is Roga, ruled by Mangala (Mars), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 06:32 to 18:15, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 27 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:15 to 06:31 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 32 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Daylight here runs 06:32 to 18:15, 11 h 43 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 27 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Tuesday Rahu Kaal is the 7th part, Yamaganda the 3rd and Gulikai Kalam the 5th.

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 16 Feb? Rohini
At sunrise the Moon was at 44.5°: Rohini, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Rohini spans 40°00′–53°20′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 43°20′. It leaves at 21:59, for Mrigashira.
Which yoga is it on Tue 16 Feb? Vaidhriti
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 347.4°: Vaidhriti.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 302.9° + 44.5° = 347.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 346°40′–360°00′ is the 27th, Vaidhriti. It ends at 03:08 Wed, then Vishkambha.
Which karana is it on Tue 16 Feb? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 101.6°: the first half of Navami, Balava.
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 runs until 07:12, when the lead reaches 102°; Kaulava until 18:34.
Which vara is Tue 16 Feb, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:32 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:32 to 06:31 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 16 Feb in (amanta)? Magha
This month began at the new moon of 8 Feb, with the Sun in Makara: Magha.
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: Makara gives Magha. The Sun enters Kumbha on 13 Feb, inside the month. The next new moon, 9 Mar, finds it in Kumbha and begins Phalguna.
Which Hindu month is Tue 16 Feb in (purnimanta)? Magha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Magha.
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 8 Feb, with the Sun in Makara, began Magha. This Shukla paksha reads Magha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Tue 16 Feb 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 327.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2072; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1937.
