How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sun 28 Jan? Shukla Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 133.5°: Shukla Dwadashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 132°–144° is the 12th, Shukla Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:36 here. Ekadashi ended at 03:57, before it. Dwadashi ends at 00:48 Mon, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 17 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Ekadashi?
New Delhi reads Ekadashi, Diffa reads Dwadashi.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.
New Delhi · IST
Sunrise here, 07:11, came before Ekadashi ended at 08:27: this day reads Ekadashi. Dwadashi ends at 05:18 Mon, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Dwadashi: it is kshaya.

Which nakshatra is it on Sun 28 Jan? Mrigashira
At sunrise the Moon was at 57.6°: Mrigashira, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Mrigashira spans 53°20′–66°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 56°40′. It leaves at 21:12, for Ardra.
Which yoga is it on Sun 28 Jan? Indra
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 341.7°: Indra.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 284.1° + 57.6° = 341.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 333°20′–346°40′ is the 26th, Indra. It ends at 14:01, then Vaidhriti.
Which karana is it on Sun 28 Jan? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 133.5°: the first half of Dwadashi, Bava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 14:25, when the lead reaches 138°; Balava until 00:48 Mon.
Which vara is Sun 28 Jan, and from when? Raviwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:36 on Sunday: Raviwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:36 to 06:36 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.
Which Hindu month is Sun 28 Jan in (amanta)? Magha
This month began at the new moon of 17 Jan, 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 12 Feb, inside the month. The next new moon, 15 Feb, finds it in Kumbha and begins Phalguna.
Which Hindu month is Sun 28 Jan 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 17 Jan, with the Sun in Makara, began Magha. This Shukla paksha reads Magha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sun 28 Jan in? Vikram 2074 · Shaka 1939
Vikram Samvat 2074 began at the Chaitra new moon of 28 Mar 2017.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 28 Mar 2017, 03:57 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 300.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2074; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1939.
