How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 4 Aug? Shukla Dwitiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 16.3°: Shukla Dwitiya.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 12°–24° is the 2nd, Shukla Dwitiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:55 here. Pratipada ended at 21:16 Wed, before it. Dwitiya ends at 21:25, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 2 Aug, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 4 Aug? 04:24–05:10
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:24–05:10.
The night of Wed 3 Aug ran from sunset 18:36 Wed to sunrise 05:55, 11 h 19 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas

When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 4 Aug? 15:13–16:03
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 10:08–10:59 and 15:13–16:03.
Daylight here, 05:55 to 18:35, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Thursday is the 6th and 12th, 10:08–10:59 and 15:13–16:03.

05:55–07:30 is Shubha, ruled by Guru (Jupiter), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight, counted good.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 4 Aug? Magha
At sunrise the Moon was at 124.5°: Magha, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Magha spans 120°00′–133°20′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 123°20′. It leaves at 22:28, for Purva Phalguni.
Which yoga is it on Thu 4 Aug? Variyana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 232.7°: Variyana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 108.2° + 124.5° = 232.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 226°40′–240°00′ is the 18th, Variyana. It ends at 18:41, then Parigha.
Which karana is it on Thu 4 Aug? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 16.3°: the first half of Dwitiya, Balava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwitiya is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 09:16, when the lead reaches 18°; Kaulava until 21:25.
Which vara is Thu 4 Aug, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:55 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:55 to 05:55 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 4 Aug in (amanta)? Shravana
This month began at the new moon of 2 Aug, with the Sun in Karka: Shravana.
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: Karka gives Shravana. The Sun enters Simha on 16 Aug, inside the month. The next new moon, 1 Sep, finds it in Simha and begins Bhadrapada.
Which Hindu month is Thu 4 Aug in (purnimanta)? Shravana
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Shravana.
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 2 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, began Shravana. This Shukla paksha reads Shravana in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 4 Aug 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 114.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2073; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1938.
