How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 18 May? Shukla Chaturthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 37.1°: Shukla Chaturthi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 36°–48° is the 4th, Shukla Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:31 here. Tritiya ended at 04:23, before it. Chaturthi ends at 02:34 Thu, when the lead reaches 48°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Tritiya?
New Delhi reads Tritiya, Ipameri reads Chaturthi.

What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 18 May? 04:49–05:40
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:49–05:40.
The night of Tue 17 May ran from sunset 17:46 Tue to sunrise 06:31, 12 h 44 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 18 May? 11:46–12:31
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:46–12:31.
Daylight here, 06:31 to 17:46, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:46–12:31: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 18 May?
06:31–07:55 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:31 to 17:46, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 24 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:46 to 06:31 Thu, 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.

Daylight here runs 06:31 to 17:46, 11 h 16 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 24 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.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 18 May? Ardra
At sunrise the Moon was at 71.6°: Ardra, pada 2.
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 2 at 70°. It leaves at 20:56, for Punarvasu.
Which yoga is it on Wed 18 May? Dhriti
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 106.1°: Dhriti.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 34.5° + 71.6° = 106.1°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 93°20′–106°40′ is the 8th, Dhriti. It ends at 07:26, then Shula.
Which karana is it on Wed 18 May? Vanija
At sunrise the lead was 37.1°: the first half of Chaturthi, Vanija.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija runs until 15:30, when the lead reaches 42°; Vishti until 02:34 Thu.
Which vara is Wed 18 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:31 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:31 to 06:31 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 18 May in (amanta)? Jyeshtha (Adhik)
No sankranti between the new moons of 15 May and 13 Jun: Adhika Jyeshtha.
A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 May 07:57 Sun to 13 Jun 18:10 Mon the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 13 Jun 21:50 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha itself.
Which Hindu month is Wed 18 May in (purnimanta)? Jyeshtha (Adhik)
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Jyeshtha (Adhik).
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 15 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 18 May in? Vikram 1961 · Shaka 1826
Vikram Samvat 1961 began at the Chaitra new moon of 17 Mar 1904.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 1904, 02:39 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 60.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1961; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1826.
