How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 6 Dec? Shukla Saptami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 75.9°: Shukla Saptami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 72°–84° is the 7th, Shukla Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:19 here. Shashthi ended at 22:26 Mon, before it. Saptami ends at 22:20, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 29 Nov, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 6 Dec? 04:38–05:28
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:38–05:28.
The night of Mon 5 Dec ran from sunset 17:41 Mon to sunrise 06:19, 12 h 38 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:36–09:21, and the 7th of the night's 15, 22:45–23:35.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 6 Dec? 22:45–23:35

Daylight here, 06:19 to 17:42, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Tuesday is the 4th and the night's 7th, 08:36–09:21 and 22:45–23:35.
Which choghadiya is good on Tue 6 Dec?
06:19–07:44 is Roga, ruled by Mangala (Mars), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight, counted bad.

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 6 Dec? Dhanishtha
At sunrise the Moon was at 306.3°: Dhanishtha, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Dhanishtha spans 293°20′–306°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 303°20′. It leaves at 06:54, for Shatabhisha.
Which yoga is it on Tue 6 Dec? Harshana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 536.7°, one turn and 176.7°: Harshana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 230.4° + 306.3° = 536.7°, one full turn and 176.7°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 23:06, then Vajra.
Which karana is it on Tue 6 Dec? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 75.9°: the first half of Saptami, Garaja.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Saptami is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja runs until 10:28, when the lead reaches 78°; Vanija until 22:20.
Which vara is Tue 6 Dec, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:19 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:19 to 06:20 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 6 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 29 Nov, 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, 29 Dec, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Tue 6 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 29 Nov, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Tue 6 Dec 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 236.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2073; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1938.
