How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 16 Feb? Shukla Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 132°: 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, 06:32 here. Ekadashi ended at 06:32, before it. Dwadashi ends at 03:40 Sun, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 4 Feb, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Ekadashi?
New Delhi reads Ekadashi, Diffa reads Dwadashi.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 16 Feb? Ardra
At sunrise the Moon was at 75.1°: Ardra, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ardra spans 66°40′–80°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 73°20′. It leaves at 14:35, for Punarvasu.
Which yoga is it on Sat 16 Feb? Priti
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 378.2°, one turn and 18.2°: Priti.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 303.1° + 75.1° = 378.2°, one full turn and 18.2°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 13°20′–26°40′ is the 2nd, Priti. It ends at 19:30, then Ayushmana.
Which karana is it on Sat 16 Feb? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 132°: 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 17:10, when the lead reaches 138°; Balava until 03:40 Sun.
Which vara is Sat 16 Feb, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:32 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:32 to 06:31 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 16 Feb in (amanta)? Magha
This month began at the new moon of 4 Feb, 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 13 Feb, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Mar, finds it in Kumbha and begins Phalguna.
Which Hindu month is Sat 16 Feb 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 4 Feb, with the Sun in Makara, began Magha. This Shukla paksha reads Magha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 16 Feb 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 330.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2075; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1940.
