How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 16 Mar? Shukla Ashtami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 95.9°: Shukla Ashtami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 84°–96° is the 8th, Shukla Ashtami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:37 here. Saptami ended at 05:32 Tue, before it. Ashtami ends at 06:38, when the lead reaches 96°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 Mar, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does Ashtami hold two sunrises?
Ashtami holds the sunrises of both Tue 15 and Wed 16 Mar here.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ashtami began at 05:32 Tue, before sunrise at 06:38 Tue, and ends at 06:38, after the next sunrise at 06:37. Both days read Ashtami: it is a vriddhi tithi here.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 16 Mar? 05:01–05:49
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:01–05:49.
The night of Tue 15 Mar ran from sunset 18:38 Tue to sunrise 06:37, 11 h 59 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 16 Mar? 12:14–13:02
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:14–13:02.
Daylight here, 06:37 to 18:39, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 12:14–13:02: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 16 Mar?
06:37–08:07 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:37 to 18:39, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 30 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:39 to 06:36 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 29 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 Wed 16 Mar? 12:38–14:08
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:38–14:08.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 16 Mar? 08:07–09:37
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 08:07–09:37.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 16 Mar? 11:07–12:38
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:07–12:38.
Daylight here runs 06:37 to 18:39, 12 h 2 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 30 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.
Sunrise and sunset
What time is sunrise on Wed 16 Mar? 06:37
Day here: sunrise 06:37, sunset 18:39, 12 h 2 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 16 Mar? 18:39
Day here: sunrise 06:37, sunset 18:39, 12 h 2 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 12 h 2 m and the night until the next sunrise 11 h 57 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 16 Mar? Ardra
At sunrise the Moon was at 68.3°: Ardra, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ardra spans 66°40′–80°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 66°40′. It leaves at 04:29 Thu, for Punarvasu.
Which yoga is it on Wed 16 Mar? Saubhagya
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 400.6°, one turn and 40.6°: Saubhagya.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 332.3° + 68.3° = 400.6°, one full turn and 40.6°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 40°00′–53°20′ is the 4th, Saubhagya. It ends at 04:38 Thu, then Shobhana.
Which karana is it on Wed 16 Mar? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 95.9°: the second half of Ashtami, Bava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ashtami is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti ended at 18:10 Tue, when the lead reached 90°; Bava runs until 06:38.
Which vara is Wed 16 Mar, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:37 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:37 to 06:36 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 16 Mar in (amanta)? Phalguna
This month began at the new moon of 7 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha: Phalguna.
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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 13 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Apr, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.
Which Hindu month is Wed 16 Mar in (purnimanta)? Phalguna
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Phalguna.
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 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha, began Phalguna. This Shukla paksha reads Phalguna in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 16 Mar in? Vikram 1988 · Shaka 1853
Vikram Samvat 1988 began at the Chaitra new moon of 19 Mar 1931.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 1931, 13:20 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 357.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1988; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1853.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Wed 16 Mar? 12:31
The Moon rises here at 12:31.
What time is moonset on Wed 16 Mar? 02:27 Thu
The Moon was down at sunrise and rises at 12:31, in this day's daylight; it sets again at 02:27 Thu.
