How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sun 18 Feb? Shukla Tritiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 27°: Shukla Tritiya.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 24°–36° is the 3rd, Shukla Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:31 here. Dwitiya ended at 00:21, before it. Tritiya ends at 00:47 Mon, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Feb, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sun 18 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 Sat 17 Feb ran from sunset 18:15 Sat 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.

Dur Muhurtam is the 14th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 16:42–17:29.
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 Sunday is the 14th, 16:42–17:29.

Which nakshatra is it on Sun 18 Feb? Purva Bhadrapada
At sunrise the Moon was at 332.4°: Purva Bhadrapada, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Purva Bhadrapada spans 320°00′–333°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 330°. It leaves at 08:16, for Uttara Bhadrapada.

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 637.8°, one turn and 277.8°: Siddha.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 305.4° + 332.4° = 637.8°, one full turn and 277.8°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 266°40′–280°00′ is the 21st, Siddha. It ends at 10:21, then Sadhya.
Which karana is it on Sun 18 Feb? Taitila
At sunrise the lead was 27°: the first half of Tritiya, Taitila.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 12:37, when the lead reaches 30°; Garaja until 00:47 Mon.
Which vara is Sun 18 Feb, and from when? Raviwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:31 on Sunday: Raviwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:31 to 06:30 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.
Which Hindu month is Sun 18 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 Sun 18 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 Sun 18 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 321.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2074; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1939.
