How each value is worked out
Which tithi is today? Shukla Tritiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 32°: 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, 05:47 here. Dwitiya ended at 12:23 Wed, before it. Tritiya ends at 14:39, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Nov, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta today? Fri 13 Nov, 04:16–05:02 Thu 12 Nov, 04:16–05:02

Which nakshatra is it today? Jyeshtha
At sunrise the Moon was at 237.5°: Jyeshtha, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Jyeshtha spans 226°40′–240°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 236°40′. It leaves at 10:49, for Mula.
Which yoga is it today? Sukarma
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 443°, one turn and 83°: Sukarma.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 205.5° + 237.5° = 443°, one full turn and 83°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 80°00′–93°20′ is the 7th, Sukarma. It ends at 00:56 Fri, then Dhriti.
Which karana is it today? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 32°: 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 01:29, when the lead reached 30°; Garaja runs until 14:39.
Which vara is it, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:47 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:47 to 05:47 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is it (amanta)? Kartika
This month began at the new moon of 9 Nov, with the Sun in Tula: Kartika.
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: Tula gives Kartika. The Sun enters Vrishchika on 16 Nov, inside the month. The next new moon, 9 Dec, finds it in Vrishchika and begins Margashirsha.
Which Hindu month is it (purnimanta)? Kartika
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Kartika.
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 Nov, with the Sun in Tula, began Kartika. This Shukla paksha reads Kartika in both counts.
Which samvat year is it? 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 231.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
