How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 10 May? Shukla Chaturthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 46.8°: 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, 05:45 here. Tritiya ended at 10:22 Mon, before it. Chaturthi ends at 08:00, when the lead reaches 48°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 6 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 10 May? 04:14–04:59
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:14–04:59.
The night of Mon 9 May ran from sunset 18:26 Mon to sunrise 05:45, 11 h 19 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 10 May? 08:17–09:08
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:17–09:08, and the 7th of the night's 15, 22:58–23:43.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 10 May? 22:58–23:43
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:17–09:08, and the 7th of the night's 15, 22:58–23:43.
Daylight here, 05:45 to 18:27, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Tuesday is the 4th and the night's 7th, 08:17–09:08 and 22:58–23:43.
Which choghadiya is good on Tue 10 May?
05:45–07:20 is Roga, ruled by Mangala (Mars), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 05:45 to 18:27, 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.
The night here, 18:27 to 05:44 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 24 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Daylight here runs 05:45 to 18:27, 12 h 42 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 35 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 10 May? Ardra
At sunrise the Moon was at 72.6°: Ardra, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ardra spans 66°40′–80°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 70°. It leaves at 18:22, for Punarvasu.
Which yoga is it on Tue 10 May? Dhriti
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 98.5°: Dhriti.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 25.9° + 72.6° = 98.5°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 93°20′–106°40′ is the 8th, Dhriti. It ends at 18:49, then Shula.
Which karana is it on Tue 10 May? Vishti
At sunrise the lead was 46.8°: the second half of Chaturthi, Vishti.
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 ended at 21:06 Mon, when the lead reached 42°; Vishti runs until 08:00.
Which vara is Tue 10 May, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:45 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:45 to 05:44 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 10 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 Tue 10 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 Tue 10 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, 12:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 31.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2073; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1938.

What time is moonrise on Tue 10 May? 09:14
