How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 6 May? Shukla Chaturdashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 162.4°: Shukla Chaturdashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 156°–168° is the 14th, Shukla Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:46 here. Trayodashi ended at 18:51 Tue, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 15:15, when the lead reaches 168°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 23 Apr, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 6 May? 04:15–05:01
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:15–05:01.
The night of Tue 5 May ran from sunset 18:25 Tue to sunrise 05:46, 11 h 21 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 6 May? 11:40–12:31
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:40–12:31.
Daylight here, 05:46 to 18:26, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:40–12:31: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 6 May?
05:46–07:21 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:46 to 18:26, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 35 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:26 to 05:46 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 25 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 Wed 6 May? 12:06–13:41
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:06–13:41.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 6 May? 07:21–08:56
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:21–08:56.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 6 May? 10:31–12:06
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:31–12:06.
Daylight here runs 05:46 to 18:26, 12 h 40 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 35 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.
Sunrise and sunset
What time is sunrise on Wed 6 May? 05:46
Day here: sunrise 05:46, sunset 18:26, 12 h 40 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 6 May? 18:26
Day here: sunrise 05:46, sunset 18:26, 12 h 40 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 12 h 40 m and the night until the next sunrise 11 h 20 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 6 May? Chitra
At sunrise the Moon was at 184.4°: Chitra, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Chitra spans 173°20′–186°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 183°20′. It leaves at 09:21, for Swati.
Which yoga is it on Wed 6 May? Siddhi
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 206.4°: Siddhi.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 22° + 184.4° = 206.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 200°00′–213°20′ is the 16th, Siddhi. It ends at 16:08, then Vyatipata.
Which karana is it on Wed 6 May? Vanija
At sunrise the lead was 162.4°: the second half of Chaturdashi, Vanija.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 05:03, when the lead reached 162°; Vanija runs until 15:15.
Which vara is Wed 6 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:46 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:46 to 05:46 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 6 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 23 Apr, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 14 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 22 May, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 6 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Vaishakha.
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 23 Apr, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 6 May in? Vikram 2077 · Shaka 1942
Vikram Samvat 2077 began at the Chaitra new moon of 24 Mar 2020.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 24 Mar 2020, 10:28 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 41.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2077; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1942.
