How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 17 Feb? Shukla Dwitiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 15.4°: 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, 06:31 here. Pratipada ended at 23:27 Fri, before it. Dwitiya ends at 00:21 Sun, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Feb, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 17 Feb? 04:53–05:42
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:53–05:42.
The night of Fri 16 Feb ran from sunset 18:15 Fri to sunrise 06:31, 12 h 16 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.

Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 06:31–07:18 and 07:18–08:05.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 17 Feb? 07:18–08:05
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 06:31–07:18 and 07:18–08:05.
Daylight here, 06:31 to 18:15, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 06:31–07:18 and 07:18–08:05.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 17 Feb?
06:31–07:59 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 06:31 to 18:15, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 28 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 Sun, 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 in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Sat 17 Feb? 09:27–10:55
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 09:27–10:55.

Daylight here runs 06:31 to 18:15, 11 h 44 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 28 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Saturday Rahu Kaal is the 3rd part, Yamaganda the 6th and Gulikai Kalam the 1st.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 17 Feb? Shatabhisha
At sunrise the Moon was at 319.8°: Shatabhisha, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Shatabhisha spans 306°40′–320°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 316°40′. It leaves at 06:57, for Purva Bhadrapada.
Which yoga is it on Sat 17 Feb? Shiva
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 624.2°, one turn and 264.2°: Shiva.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 304.4° + 319.8° = 624.2°, one full turn and 264.2°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 253°20′–266°40′ is the 20th, Shiva. It ends at 10:57, then Siddha.
Which karana is it on Sat 17 Feb? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 15.4°: 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 11:57, when the lead reaches 18°; Kaulava until 00:21 Sun.
Which vara is Sat 17 Feb, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:31 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:31 to 06:31 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 17 Feb in (amanta)? Phalguna
This month began at the new moon of 15 Feb, with the Sun in Kumbha: Phalguna.
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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 17 Mar, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.
Which Hindu month is Sat 17 Feb in (purnimanta)? Phalguna
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Phalguna.
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 15 Feb, with the Sun in Kumbha, began Phalguna. This Shukla paksha reads Phalguna in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 17 Feb 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 320.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2074; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1939.
