How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sun 23 Dec? Shukla Dwitiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 14.4°: Shukla Dwitiya.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 12°–24° is the 2nd, Shukla Dwitiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:20 here. Pratipada ended at 02:44, before it. Dwitiya ends at 01:58 Mon, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 22 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sun 23 Dec? 05:22–06:21
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:22–06:21.

Which nakshatra is it on Sun 23 Dec? Purva Ashadha
At sunrise the Moon was at 262.8°: Purva Ashadha, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Purva Ashadha spans 253°20′–266°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 260°. It leaves at 14:16, for Uttara Ashadha.
Which yoga is it on Sun 23 Dec? Dhruva
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 511.2°, one turn and 151.2°: Dhruva.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 248.4° + 262.8° = 511.2°, one full turn and 151.2°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 146°40′–160°00′ is the 12th, Dhruva. It ends at 21:54, then Vyaghata.
Which karana is it on Sun 23 Dec? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 14.4°: the first half of Dwitiya, Balava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwitiya is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 14:24, when the lead reaches 18°; Kaulava until 01:58 Mon.
Which vara is Sun 23 Dec, and from when? Raviwara
This day began at sunrise, 07:20 on Sunday: Raviwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:20 to 07:21 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.
Which Hindu month is Sun 23 Dec in (amanta)? Pausha
This month began at the new moon of 22 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu: Pausha.
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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 13 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 20 Jan, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.
Which Hindu month is Sun 23 Dec in (purnimanta)? Pausha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Pausha.
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 22 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sun 23 Dec in? Vikram 1957 · Shaka 1822
Vikram Samvat 1957 began at the Chaitra new moon of 30 Mar 1900.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 30 Mar 1900, 23:30 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 261.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1957; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1822.
