How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 17 Apr? Shukla Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 132.5°: 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, 05:55 here. Ekadashi ended at 04:58, before it. Dwadashi ends at 03:12 Sun, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 Apr, 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 17 Apr? Purva Phalguni
At sunrise the Moon was at 135.3°: Purva Phalguni, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Purva Phalguni spans 133°20′–146°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 133°20′. It leaves at 01:36 Sun, for Uttara Phalguni.
Which yoga is it on Sat 17 Apr? Vriddhi
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 138°: Vriddhi.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 2.7° + 135.3° = 138°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 133°20′–146°40′ is the 11th, Vriddhi. It ends at 19:54, then Dhruva.
Which karana is it on Sat 17 Apr? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 132.5°: 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 16:04, when the lead reaches 138°; Balava until 03:12 Sun.
Which vara is Sat 17 Apr, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:55 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:55 to 05:55 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 17 Apr in (amanta)? Chaitra
This month began at the new moon of 7 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 14 Apr, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 May, finds it in Mesha and begins Vaishakha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 17 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 7 Apr, with the Sun in Meena, began Chaitra. This Shukla paksha reads Chaitra in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 17 Apr in? Vikram 2084 · Shaka 1949
Vikram Samvat 2084 began at the Chaitra new moon of 7 Apr 2027.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2027, 00:51 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 10° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2084; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1949.
