How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Fri 8 May? Shukla Pratipada
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 5.9°: Shukla Pratipada.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 0°–12° is the 1st, Shukla Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:27 here. Amavasya ended at 17:11 Thu, before it. Pratipada ends at 19:43, when the lead reaches 12°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Fri 8 May? 04:46–05:37
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:46–05:37.
The night of Thu 7 May ran from sunset 17:50 Thu to sunrise 06:27, 12 h 37 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 Fri 8 May? 12:31–13:17
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th and 9th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 08:44–09:29 and 12:31–13:17.
Daylight here, 06:27 to 17:50, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Friday is the 4th and 9th, 08:44–09:29 and 12:31–13:17.
Which choghadiya is good on Fri 8 May?
06:27–07:53 is Chara, ruled by Shukra (Venus), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Friday's daylight, counted neutral.

Which nakshatra is it on Fri 8 May? Krittika
At sunrise the Moon was at 29.8°: Krittika, pada 1.
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 1 at 26°40′. It leaves at 03:14 Sat, for Rohini.
Which yoga is it on Fri 8 May? Shobhana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 53.6°: Shobhana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 23.8° + 29.8° = 53.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 53°20′–66°40′ is the 5th, Shobhana. It ends at 07:06 Sat, then Atiganda.
Which karana is it on Fri 8 May? Kinstughna
At sunrise the lead was 5.9°: the first half of Pratipada, Kinstughna.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Kinstughna and the second Bava. Kinstughna runs until 06:28, when the lead reaches 6°; Bava until 19:43.
Which vara is Fri 8 May, and from when? Shukrawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:27 on Friday: Shukrawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:27 to 06:28 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.
Which Hindu month is Fri 8 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 14 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Fri 8 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 Fri 8 May in? Vikram 2016 · Shaka 1881
Vikram Samvat 2016 began at the Chaitra new moon of 8 Apr 1959.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 8 Apr 1959, 00:29 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 29.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2016; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1881.
