How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 17 May? Shukla Tritiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 27.5°: 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, 05:53 here. Dwitiya ended at 22:45 Tue, before it. Tritiya ends at 23:48, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 14 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 17 May? 04:26–05:10
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:26–05:10.
The night of Tue 16 May ran from sunset 18:56 Tue to sunrise 05:53, 10 h 57 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 17 May? 11:59–12:51
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:59–12:51.
Daylight here, 05:53 to 18:57, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 52 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:59–12:51: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 17 May?
05:53–07:31 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:53 to 18:57, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 38 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:57 to 05:53 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 22 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 17 May? 12:25–14:03
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:25–14:03.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 17 May? 07:31–09:09
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:31–09:09.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 17 May? 10:47–12:25
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:47–12:25.
Daylight here runs 05:53 to 18:57, 13 h 4 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 38 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 17 May? 05:53
Day here: sunrise 05:53, sunset 18:57, 13 h 4 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 17 May? 18:57
Day here: sunrise 05:53, sunset 18:57, 13 h 4 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 13 h 4 m and the night until the next sunrise 10 h 56 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 17 May? Mrigashira
At sunrise the Moon was at 60°: Mrigashira, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Mrigashira spans 53°20′–66°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 60°. It leaves at 18:44, for Ardra.
Which yoga is it on Wed 17 May? Sukarma
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 92.6°: Sukarma.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 32.6° + 60° = 92.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 80°00′–93°20′ is the 7th, Sukarma. It ends at 07:16, then Dhriti.
Which karana is it on Wed 17 May? Taitila
At sunrise the lead was 27.5°: the first half of Tritiya, Taitila.
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 runs until 11:12, when the lead reaches 30°; Garaja until 23:48.
Which vara is Wed 17 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:53 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:53 to 05:53 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 17 May in (amanta)? Jyeshtha (Adhik)
No sankranti between the new moons of 14 May and 13 Jun: Adhika Jyeshtha.
A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 14 May 22:24 Sun to 13 Jun 10:46 Tue the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 14 Jun 20:59 Wed, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha itself.
Which Hindu month is Wed 17 May in (purnimanta)? Jyeshtha (Adhik)
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Jyeshtha (Adhik).
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 14 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 17 May in? Vikram 2018 · Shaka 1883
Vikram Samvat 2018 began at the Chaitra new moon of 17 Mar 1961.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 1961, 00:20 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 60° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2018; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1883.
