How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 24 Mar? Shukla Ashtami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 84.3°: Shukla Ashtami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 84°–96° is the 8th, Shukla Ashtami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:11 here. Saptami ended at 05:36, before it. Ashtami ends at 03:32 Sun, when the lead reaches 96°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 17 Mar, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Saptami?
New Delhi reads Saptami, Diffa reads Ashtami.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 24 Mar? Mrigashira
At sunrise the Moon was at 63.7°: Mrigashira, pada 4.
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 4 at 63°20′. It leaves at 11:11, for Ardra.

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 403.1°, one turn and 43.1°: Saubhagya.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 339.4° + 63.7° = 403.1°, one full turn and 43.1°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 40°00′–53°20′ is the 4th, Saubhagya. It ends at 22:24, then Shobhana.
Which karana is it on Sat 24 Mar? Vishti
At sunrise the lead was 84.3°: the first half of Ashtami, Vishti.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ashtami is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti runs until 16:35, when the lead reaches 90°; Bava until 03:32 Sun.
Which vara is Sat 24 Mar, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:11 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:11 to 06:10 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 24 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 Sat 24 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 Sat 24 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 6.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2075; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1940.
