How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 17 Dec? Shukla Ashtami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 86.9°: 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, 08:12 here. Saptami ended at 02:16, before it. Ashtami ends at 02:56 Fri, when the lead reaches 96°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 17 Dec? 06:06–07:09
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 06:06–07:09.
The night of Wed 16 Dec ran from sunset 16:21 Wed to sunrise 08:12, 15 h 51 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 1 h 3 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 17 Dec? Purva Bhadrapada
At sunrise the Moon was at 327.6°: Purva Bhadrapada, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Purva Bhadrapada spans 320°00′–333°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 326°40′. It leaves at 19:00, for Uttara Bhadrapada.

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 568.4°, one turn and 208.4°: Siddhi.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 240.8° + 327.6° = 568.4°, one full turn and 208.4°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 200°00′–213°20′ is the 16th, Siddhi. It ends at 16:51, then Vyatipata.
Which karana is it on Thu 17 Dec? Vishti
At sunrise the lead was 86.9°: the first half of Ashtami, Vishti.
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 runs until 14:42, when the lead reaches 90°; Bava until 02:56 Fri.
Which vara is Thu 17 Dec, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 08:12 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 08:12 to 08:13 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 17 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.
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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 16 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 8 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Thu 17 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.
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 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 17 Dec in? 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, 10:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 266.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
