How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 12 Jan? Shukla Chaturthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 46.7°: Shukla Chaturthi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 36°–48° is the 4th, Shukla Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:11 here. Tritiya ended at 05:58 Mon, before it. Chaturthi ends at 07:59, when the lead reaches 48°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 12 Jan? 03:51–04:31
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:51–04:31.
The night of Mon 11 Jan ran from sunset 19:12 Mon to sunrise 05:11, 9 h 59 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 39 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas

Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:44–12:40.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 12 Jan? 07:59–08:55
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 07:59–08:55, and the 7th of the night's 15, 23:12–23:52.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 12 Jan? 23:12–23:52
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 07:59–08:55, and the 7th of the night's 15, 23:12–23:52.
Daylight here, 05:11 to 19:12, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 56 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Tuesday is the 4th and the night's 7th, 07:59–08:55 and 23:12–23:52.
Which choghadiya is good on Tue 12 Jan?
05:11–06:56 is Roga, ruled by Mangala (Mars), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 05:11 to 19:12, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 45 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 19:12 to 05:12 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 15 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 Tue 12 Jan? 15:42–17:27

Daylight here runs 05:11 to 19:12, 14 h 1 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 45 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Tuesday Rahu Kaal is the 7th part, Yamaganda the 3rd and Gulikai Kalam the 5th.

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 12 Jan? Shatabhisha
At sunrise the Moon was at 314.1°: Shatabhisha, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Shatabhisha spans 306°40′–320°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 313°20′. It leaves at 16:44, for Purva Bhadrapada.
Which yoga is it on Tue 12 Jan? Vyatipata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 581.5°, one turn and 221.5°: Vyatipata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 267.4° + 314.1° = 581.5°, one full turn and 221.5°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 14:27, then Variyana.
Which karana is it on Tue 12 Jan? Vishti
At sunrise the lead was 46.7°: the second half of Chaturthi, Vishti.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 19:02 Mon, when the lead reached 42°; Vishti runs until 07:59.
Which vara is Tue 12 Jan, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:11 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:11 to 05:12 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 12 Jan in (amanta)? Pausha
This month began at the new moon of 7 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu: Pausha.
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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 14 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Feb, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.
Which Hindu month is Tue 12 Jan in (purnimanta)? Pausha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Pausha.
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 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Tue 12 Jan in? Vikram 2083 · Shaka 1948
Vikram Samvat 2083 began at the Chaitra new moon of 19 Mar 2026.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 03:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 293.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
