How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 15 May? Shukla Navami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 96.9°: Shukla Navami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 96°–108° is the 9th, Shukla Navami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:30 here. Ashtami ended at 04:50, before it. Navami ends at 02:36 Thu, when the lead reaches 108°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Ashtami?
New Delhi reads Ashtami, Ipameri reads Navami.

What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 15 May? 04:48–05:39
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:48–05:39.
The night of Tue 14 May ran from sunset 17:47 Tue to sunrise 06:30, 12 h 43 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 15 May? 11:46–12:31
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:46–12:31.
Daylight here, 06:30 to 17:47, 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 15 May?
06:30–07:55 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:30 to 17:47, 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, 17:47 to 06:30 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 in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 15 May? 12:08–13:33
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:08–13:33.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 15 May? 07:55–09:19
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:55–09:19.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 15 May? 10:44–12:08
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:44–12:08.
Daylight here runs 06:30 to 17:47, 11 h 17 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 15 May? Magha
At sunrise the Moon was at 128.3°: Magha, pada 3.
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 3 at 126°40′. It leaves at 15:04, for Purva Phalguni.
Which yoga is it on Wed 15 May? Dhruva
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 159.7°: Dhruva.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 31.4° + 128.3° = 159.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 146°40′–160°00′ is the 12th, Dhruva. It ends at 07:04, then Vyaghata.
Which karana is it on Wed 15 May? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 96.9°: the first half of Navami, Balava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Navami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 15:45, when the lead reaches 102°; Kaulava until 02:36 Thu.
Which vara is Wed 15 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:30 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:30 to 06:30 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 15 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 7 May, 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 13 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 5 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 15 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 7 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 15 May in? Vikram 1997 · Shaka 1862
Vikram Samvat 1997 began at the Chaitra new moon of 7 Apr 1940.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 1940, 17:18 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 36.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1997; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1862.

What time is moonrise on Wed 15 May? 13:11
