How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 16 Apr? Shukla Tritiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 34.5°: Shukla Tritiya.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 24°–36° is the 3rd, Shukla Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:22 here. Dwitiya ended at 11:20 Wed, before it. Tritiya ends at 09:14, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 13 Apr, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 16 Apr? 04:43–05:32
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:43–05:32.
The night of Wed 15 Apr ran from sunset 18:03 Wed to sunrise 06:22, 12 h 19 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Thu 16 Apr? 11:49–12:35
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:49–12:35.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 16 Apr? 10:15–11:02
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 10:15–11:02 and 14:56–15:42.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 16 Apr? 14:56–15:42
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 10:15–11:02 and 14:56–15:42.
Daylight here, 06:22 to 18:02, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Thursday is the 6th and 12th, 10:15–11:02 and 14:56–15:42.
Which choghadiya is good on Thu 16 Apr?
06:22–07:49 is Shubha, ruled by Guru (Jupiter), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:22 to 18:02, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 27 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:02 to 06:22 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 32 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 16 Apr? 13:40–15:07
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 6th of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight: 13:40–15:07.
When is Yamagandam on Thu 16 Apr? 06:22–07:49
Yamaganda is the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight: 06:22–07:49.
When is Gulika Kalam on Thu 16 Apr? 09:17–10:44
Gulikai Kalam is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight: 09:17–10:44.
Daylight here runs 06:22 to 18:02, 11 h 40 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 27 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 06:22, sunset 18:02, 11 h 40 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Thu 16 Apr? 18:02
Day here: sunrise 06:22, sunset 18:02, 11 h 40 m of daylight.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 16 Apr? Krittika
At sunrise the Moon was at 37.3°: Krittika, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Krittika spans 26°40′–40°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 36°40′. It leaves at 10:57, for Rohini.
Which yoga is it on Thu 16 Apr? Saubhagya
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 40.2°: Saubhagya.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 2.9° + 37.3° = 40.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 40°00′–53°20′ is the 4th, Saubhagya. It ends at 03:43 Fri, then Shobhana.
Which karana is it on Thu 16 Apr? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 34.5°: the second half of Tritiya, Garaja.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila ended at 22:12 Wed, when the lead reached 30°; Garaja runs until 09:14.
Which vara is Thu 16 Apr, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:22 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:22 to 06:22 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 16 Apr in (amanta)? Vaishakha (Adhik)
No sankranti between the new moons of 13 Apr and 13 May: Adhika Vaishakha.
A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 13 Apr 17:08 Mon to 13 May 02:05 Wed the Sun stayed in Mesha, entering Vrishabha at 14 May 04:41 Thu, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Vaishakha, before Vaishakha itself.
Which Hindu month is Thu 16 Apr in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha (Adhik)
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Vaishakha (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 13 Apr, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha (Adhik) in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 16 Apr in? Vikram 2010 · Shaka 1875
Vikram Samvat 2010 began at the Chaitra new moon of 15 Mar 1953.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 15 Mar 1953, 08:04 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 31.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2010; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1875.
