How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 8 Apr? Shukla Shashthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 67.3°: Shukla Shashthi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 60°–72° is the 6th, Shukla Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:20 here. Panchami ended at 16:46 Wed, before it. Shashthi ends at 15:07, when the lead reaches 72°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 3 Apr, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 8 Apr? 04:42–05:31
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:42–05:31.
The night of Wed 7 Apr ran from sunset 18:09 Wed to sunrise 06:20, 12 h 11 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas

When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 8 Apr? 14:59–15:47
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 10:16–11:03 and 14:59–15:47.
Daylight here, 06:20 to 18:08, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Thursday is the 6th and 12th, 10:16–11:03 and 14:59–15:47.
Which choghadiya is good on Thu 8 Apr?
06:20–07:48 is Shubha, ruled by Guru (Jupiter), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight, counted good.

The night here, 18:08 to 06:20 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 31 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 8 Apr? Mrigashira
At sunrise the Moon was at 62.1°: Mrigashira, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Mrigashira spans 53°20′–66°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 60°. It leaves at 14:16, for Ardra.
Which yoga is it on Thu 8 Apr? Shobhana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 416.9°, one turn and 56.9°: Shobhana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 354.8° + 62.1° = 416.9°, one full turn and 56.9°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 53°20′–66°40′ is the 5th, Shobhana. It ends at 22:19, then Atiganda.
Which karana is it on Thu 8 Apr? Taitila
At sunrise the lead was 67.3°: the second half of Shashthi, Taitila.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 03:51, when the lead reached 66°; Taitila runs until 15:07.
Which vara is Thu 8 Apr, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:20 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:20 to 06:20 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 8 Apr in (amanta)? Chaitra
This month began at the new moon of 3 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 13 Apr, inside the month. The next new moon, 2 May, finds it in Mesha and begins Vaishakha.
Which Hindu month is Thu 8 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 3 Apr, with the Sun in Meena, began Chaitra. This Shukla paksha reads Chaitra in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 8 Apr in? Vikram 2011 · Shaka 1876
Vikram Samvat 2011 began at the Chaitra new moon of 3 Apr 1954.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 3 Apr 1954, 09:24 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 4.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2011; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1876.

What time is moonrise on Thu 8 Apr? 11:35
The Moon rises here at 11:35.
