How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Mon 18 Dec? Shukla Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 135.1°: Shukla Dwadashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 132°–144° is the 12th, Shukla Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:33 here. Ekadashi ended at 23:33 Sun, before it. Dwadashi ends at 22:31, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Ekadashi?
New Delhi reads Ekadashi, Ipameri reads Dwadashi.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.
New Delhi · IST
Sunrise here, 07:07, came before Ekadashi ended at 08:03: this day reads Ekadashi. Dwadashi ends at 07:01 Tue, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Dwadashi: it is kshaya.

Which nakshatra is it on Mon 18 Dec? Bharani
At sunrise the Moon was at 18°: Bharani, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Bharani spans 13°20′–26°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 16°40′. It leaves at 20:52, for Krittika.
Which yoga is it on Mon 18 Dec? Shiva
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 260.9°: Shiva.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 242.9° + 18° = 260.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 253°20′–266°40′ is the 20th, Shiva. It ends at 15:04, then Siddha.
Which karana is it on Mon 18 Dec? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 135.1°: the first half of Dwadashi, Bava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 11:00, when the lead reaches 138°; Balava until 22:31.
Which vara is Mon 18 Dec, and from when? Somawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:33 on Monday: Somawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:33 to 05:34 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.
Which Hindu month is Mon 18 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 7 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, 6 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Mon 18 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 7 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Mon 18 Dec in? Vikram 2018 · Shaka 1883
Vikram Samvat 2018 began at the Chaitra new moon of 16 Mar 1961.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 16 Mar 1961, 15:50 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 270.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2018; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1883.
