How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 8 May? Shukla Pratipada
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 3.7°: 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, 05:59 here. Amavasya ended at 23:21 Tue, before it. Pratipada ends at 20:51, when the lead reaches 12°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Amavasya?
New Delhi reads Amavasya, Olean reads Pratipada.

What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 8 May? 04:42–05:21
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:42–05:21.
The night of Tue 7 May ran from sunset 20:19 Tue to sunrise 05:59, 9 h 40 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 38 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 8 May? 12:41–13:39
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:41–13:39.
Daylight here, 05:59 to 20:20, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 57 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 12:41–13:39: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 8 May?
05:59–07:47 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:59 to 20:20, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 47 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 20:20 to 05:58 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 12 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Daylight here runs 05:59 to 20:20, 14 h 21 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 47 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 8 May? Krittika
At sunrise the Moon was at 27.8°: 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 02:25 Thu, for Rohini.
Which yoga is it on Wed 8 May? Saubhagya
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 51.9°: Saubhagya.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 24.1° + 27.8° = 51.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 40°00′–53°20′ is the 4th, Saubhagya. It ends at 08:10, then Shobhana.
Which karana is it on Wed 8 May? Kinstughna
At sunrise the lead was 3.7°: 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 10:03, when the lead reaches 6°; Bava until 20:51.
Which vara is Wed 8 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:59 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:59 to 05:58 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 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 Wed 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 Wed 8 May in? Vikram 2081 · Shaka 1946
Vikram Samvat 2081 began at the Chaitra new moon of 8 Apr 2024.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 8 Apr 2024, 14:20 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 28.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2081; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1946.
