How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 16 May? Shukla Navami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 99.1°: Shukla Navami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 96°–108° is the 9th, Shukla Navami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:07 here. Ashtami ended at 21:29 Mon, before it. Navami ends at 22:42, when the lead reaches 108°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 16 May? 02:57–03:32
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 02:57–03:32.
The night of Mon 15 May ran from sunset 19:23 Mon to sunrise 04:07, 8 h 44 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 34 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 16 May? 07:10–08:12
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 07:10–08:12, and the 7th of the night's 15, 22:53–23:28.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 16 May? 22:53–23:28
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 07:10–08:12, and the 7th of the night's 15, 22:53–23:28.
Daylight here, 04:07 to 19:25, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 1 h 1 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Tuesday is the 4th and the night's 7th, 07:10–08:12 and 22:53–23:28.
Which choghadiya is good on Tue 16 May?
04:07–06:02 is Roga, ruled by Mangala (Mars), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 04:07 to 19:25, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 54 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 19:25 to 04:06 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 5 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 16 May? Magha
At sunrise the Moon was at 130.5°: Magha, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Magha spans 120°00′–133°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 130°. It leaves at 09:41, for Purva Phalguni.
Which yoga is it on Tue 16 May? Vyaghata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 161.9°: Vyaghata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 31.4° + 130.5° = 161.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 160°00′–173°20′ is the 13th, Vyaghata. It ends at 00:43 Wed, then Harshana.
Which karana is it on Tue 16 May? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 99.1°: the first half of Navami, Balava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Navami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 10:11, when the lead reaches 102°; Kaulava until 22:42.
Which vara is Tue 16 May, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 04:07 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:07 to 04:06 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 16 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, 5 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Tue 16 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 Tue 16 May in? Vikram 2035 · Shaka 1900
Vikram Samvat 2035 began at the Chaitra new moon of 7 Apr 1978.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 1978, 16:15 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 37.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2035; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1900.
