How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sun 24 Dec? Shukla Purnima
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 179.2°: Shukla Purnima.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 168°–180° is the 15th, Shukla Purnima. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:36 here. Chaturdashi ended at 06:03 Sat, before it. Purnima ends at 08:22, when the lead reaches 180°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does Purnima hold two sunrises?
Purnima holds the sunrises of both Sat 23 and Sun 24 Dec here.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Purnima began at 06:03 Sat, before sunrise at 06:35 Sat, and ends at 08:22, after the next sunrise at 06:36. Both days read Purnima: it is a vriddhi tithi here.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sun 24 Dec? 05:09–05:53
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:09–05:53.
The night of Sat 23 Dec ran from sunset 19:47 Sat to sunrise 06:36, 10 h 49 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Sun 24 Dec? 12:45–13:38
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 12:45–13:38.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sun 24 Dec? 18:02–18:55
Dur Muhurtam is the 14th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 18:02–18:55.
Daylight here, 06:36 to 19:48, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 52 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Sunday is the 14th, 18:02–18:55.
Which choghadiya is good on Sun 24 Dec?
06:36–08:15 is Udvega, ruled by Surya (the Sun), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Sunday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 06:36 to 19:48, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 39 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 19:48 to 06:37 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 21 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 Sun 24 Dec? 18:09–19:48
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 8th of 8 equal parts of Sunday's daylight: 18:09–19:48.

Yamaganda is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Sunday's daylight: 13:12–14:51.

Daylight here runs 06:36 to 19:48, 13 h 12 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 39 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Sunday Rahu Kaal is the 8th part, Yamaganda the 5th and Gulikai Kalam the 7th.

Which nakshatra is it on Sun 24 Dec? Ardra
At sunrise the Moon was at 68°: Ardra, pada 1.
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 1 at 66°40′. It leaves at 06:33 Mon, for Punarvasu.
Which yoga is it on Sun 24 Dec? Shukla
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 316.8°: Shukla.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 248.8° + 68° = 316.8°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 306°40′–320°00′ is the 24th, Shukla. It ends at 12:32, then Brahma.
Which karana is it on Sun 24 Dec? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 179.2°: the second half of Purnima, Bava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Purnima is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti ended at 19:14 Sat, when the lead reached 174°; Bava runs until 08:22.
Which vara is Sun 24 Dec, and from when? Raviwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:36 on Sunday: Raviwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:36 to 06:37 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.
Which Hindu month is Sun 24 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.
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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 15 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Sun 24 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.
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 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sun 24 Dec in? Vikram 2007 · Shaka 1872
Vikram Samvat 2007 began at the Chaitra new moon of 18 Mar 1950.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 1950, 13:20 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 274.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2007; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1872.
