How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 20 Mar? Shukla Tritiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 32.8°: 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, 06:13 here. Dwitiya ended at 13:23 Mon, before it. Tritiya ends at 12:20, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 17 Mar, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 20 Mar? 04:38–05:26
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:38–05:26.
The night of Mon 19 Mar ran from sunset 18:20 Mon to sunrise 06:13, 11 h 53 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Tue 20 Mar? 11:52–12:41
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:52–12:41.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 20 Mar? 08:39–09:27
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:39–09:27, and the 7th of the night's 15, 23:05–23:53.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 20 Mar? 23:05–23:53
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:39–09:27, and the 7th of the night's 15, 23:05–23:53.
Daylight here, 06:13 to 18:20, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Tuesday is the 4th and the night's 7th, 08:39–09:27 and 23:05–23:53.
Which choghadiya is good on Tue 20 Mar?
06:13–07:44 is Roga, ruled by Mangala (Mars), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 06:13 to 18:20, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 30 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:20 to 06:13 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 29 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 Tue 20 Mar? 15:18–16:49
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 7th of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight: 15:18–16:49.
When is Yamagandam on Tue 20 Mar? 09:15–10:46
Yamaganda is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight: 09:15–10:46.
When is Gulika Kalam on Tue 20 Mar? 12:17–13:48
Gulikai Kalam is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight: 12:17–13:48.
Daylight here runs 06:13 to 18:20, 12 h 7 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 30 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Tuesday Rahu Kaal is the 7th part, Yamaganda the 3rd and Gulikai Kalam the 5th.

Day here: sunrise 06:13, sunset 18:20, 12 h 7 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Tue 20 Mar? 18:20

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 20 Mar? Ashwini
At sunrise the Moon was at 8.2°: Ashwini, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ashwini spans 0°00′–13°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 6°40′. It leaves at 15:14, for Bharani.
Which yoga is it on Tue 20 Mar? Indra
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 343.6°: Indra.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 335.4° + 8.2° = 343.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 333°20′–346°40′ is the 26th, Indra. It ends at 11:10, then Vaidhriti.
Which karana is it on Tue 20 Mar? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 32.8°: the second half of Tritiya, Garaja.
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 ended at 00:54, when the lead reached 30°; Garaja runs until 12:20.
Which vara is Tue 20 Mar, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:13 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:13 to 06:13 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 20 Mar in (amanta)? Chaitra
This month began at the new moon of 17 Mar, with the Sun in Meena: Chaitra.
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: Meena gives Chaitra. The Sun enters Mesha on 14 Apr, inside the month. The next new moon, 16 Apr, finds it in Mesha and begins Vaishakha.
Which Hindu month is Tue 20 Mar in (purnimanta)? Chaitra
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Chaitra.
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 Mar, with the Sun in Meena, began Chaitra. This Shukla paksha reads Chaitra in both counts.
Which samvat year is Tue 20 Mar in? Vikram 2075 · Shaka 1940
Vikram Samvat 2075 began at the Chaitra new moon of 17 Mar 2018.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 2018, 14:11 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 2.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2075; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1940.

What time is moonrise on Tue 20 Mar? 08:23
