How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 12 Mar? Shukla Tritiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 32.8°: 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, 06:14 here. Dwitiya ended at 11:01 Wed, before it. Tritiya ends at 13:15, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Mar, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 12 Mar? 04:40–05:27
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:40–05:27.
The night of Wed 11 Mar ran from sunset 18:31 Wed to sunrise 06:14, 11 h 43 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Thu 12 Mar? 11:58–12:47
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:58–12:47.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 12 Mar? 10:20–11:09
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 10:20–11:09 and 15:14–16:03.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 12 Mar? 15:14–16:03
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 10:20–11:09 and 15:14–16:03.
Daylight here, 06:14 to 18:30, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Thursday is the 6th and 12th, 10:20–11:09 and 15:14–16:03.
Which choghadiya is good on Thu 12 Mar?
06:14–07:46 is Shubha, ruled by Guru (Jupiter), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:14 to 18:30, 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.
The night here, 18:30 to 06:15 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 28 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 12 Mar? 13:54–15:26
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 6th of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight: 13:54–15:26.
When is Yamagandam on Thu 12 Mar? 06:14–07:46
Yamaganda is the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight: 06:14–07:46.
When is Gulika Kalam on Thu 12 Mar? 09:18–10:50
Gulikai Kalam is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight: 09:18–10:50.
Daylight here runs 06:14 to 18:30, 12 h 16 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 32 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 06:14, sunset 18:30, 12 h 16 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Thu 12 Mar? 18:30
Day here: sunrise 06:14, sunset 18:30, 12 h 16 m of daylight.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 12 Mar? Ashwini
At sunrise the Moon was at 0.6°: Ashwini, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ashwini spans 0°00′–13°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 0°. It leaves at 08:00 Fri, for Bharani.
Which yoga is it on Thu 12 Mar? Brahma
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 328.4°: Brahma.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 327.8° + 0.6° = 328.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 320°00′–333°20′ is the 25th, Brahma. It ends at 15:31, then Indra.
Which karana is it on Thu 12 Mar? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 32.8°: 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 00:05, when the lead reached 30°; Garaja runs until 13:15.
Which vara is Thu 12 Mar, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:14 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:14 to 06:15 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 12 Mar in (amanta)? Phalguna
This month began at the new moon of 9 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha: Phalguna.
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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 8 Apr, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.
Which Hindu month is Thu 12 Mar in (purnimanta)? Phalguna
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Phalguna.
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 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha, began Phalguna. This Shukla paksha reads Phalguna in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 12 Mar in? Vikram 2015 · Shaka 1880
Vikram Samvat 2015 began at the Chaitra new moon of 20 Mar 1958.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 1958, 06:49 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 351.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2015; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1880.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Thu 12 Mar? 08:41
The Moon rises here at 08:41.
What time is moonset on Thu 12 Mar? 20:37
