How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 18 Apr? Shukla Dashami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 116.8°: Shukla Dashami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 108°–120° is the 10th, Shukla Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:54 here. Navami ended at 10:44 Wed, before it. Dashami ends at 13:02, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 8 Apr, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 18 Apr? 04:22–05:08
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:22–05:08.
The night of Wed 17 Apr ran from sunset 18:22 Wed to sunrise 05:54, 11 h 32 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Thu 18 Apr? 11:43–12:33
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:43–12:33.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 18 Apr? 10:04–10:54
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 10:04–10:54 and 15:03–15:53.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 18 Apr? 15:03–15:53
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 10:04–10:54 and 15:03–15:53.
Daylight here, 05:54 to 18:22, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Thursday is the 6th and 12th, 10:04–10:54 and 15:03–15:53.
Which choghadiya is good on Thu 18 Apr?
05:54–07:28 is Shubha, ruled by Guru (Jupiter), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:54 to 18:22, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 33 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:22 to 05:54 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 26 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 Thu 18 Apr? 13:42–15:15
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 6th of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight: 13:42–15:15.
When is Yamagandam on Thu 18 Apr? 05:54–07:28
Yamaganda is the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight: 05:54–07:28.
When is Gulika Kalam on Thu 18 Apr? 09:01–10:35
Gulikai Kalam is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight: 09:01–10:35.
Daylight here runs 05:54 to 18:22, 12 h 28 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 33 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Thursday Rahu Kaal is the 6th part, Yamaganda the 1st and Gulikai Kalam the 3rd.

Day here: sunrise 05:54, sunset 18:22, 12 h 28 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Thu 18 Apr? 18:22

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 18 Apr? Magha
At sunrise the Moon was at 121.2°: Magha, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Magha spans 120°00′–133°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 120°. It leaves at 06:26 Fri, for Purva Phalguni.
Which yoga is it on Thu 18 Apr? Ganda
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 125.7°: Ganda.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 4.5° + 121.2° = 125.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 120°00′–133°20′ is the 10th, Ganda. It ends at 20:12, then Vriddhi.
Which karana is it on Thu 18 Apr? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 116.8°: the second half of Dashami, Garaja.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila ended at 23:50 Wed, when the lead reached 114°; Garaja runs until 13:02.
Which vara is Thu 18 Apr, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:54 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:54 to 05:54 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 18 Apr in (amanta)? Chaitra
This month began at the new moon of 8 Apr, 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 13 Apr, inside the month. The next new moon, 8 May, finds it in Mesha and begins Vaishakha.
Which Hindu month is Thu 18 Apr 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 8 Apr, with the Sun in Meena, began Chaitra. This Shukla paksha reads Chaitra in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 18 Apr in? Vikram 2081 · Shaka 1946
Vikram Samvat 2081 began at the Chaitra new moon of 8 Apr 2024.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 8 Apr 2024, 19:20 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 9.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2081; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1946.

What time is moonrise on Thu 18 Apr? 14:18
