How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 23 Aug? Krishna Ashtami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 268.2°: Krishna Ashtami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 264°–276° is the 23rd, Krishna Ashtami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:17 here. Saptami ended at 20:11 Tue, before it. Ashtami ends at 22:00, when the lead reaches 276°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 15 Aug, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 23 Aug? 03:53–04:35
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:53–04:35.
The night of Tue 22 Aug ran from sunset 18:48 Tue to sunrise 05:17, 10 h 29 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 41 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 23 Aug? 11:35–12:29
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:35–12:29.
Daylight here, 05:17 to 18:47, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 54 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:35–12:29: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 23 Aug?
05:17–06:58 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:17 to 18:47, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 41 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:47 to 05:18 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 18 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 23 Aug? 12:02–13:43
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:02–13:43.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 23 Aug? 06:58–08:39
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 06:58–08:39.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 23 Aug? 10:21–12:02
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:21–12:02.
Daylight here runs 05:17 to 18:47, 13 h 30 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 41 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 23 Aug? 05:17
Day here: sunrise 05:17, sunset 18:47, 13 h 30 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 23 Aug? 18:47
Day here: sunrise 05:17, sunset 18:47, 13 h 30 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 13 h 30 m and the night until the next sunrise 10 h 31 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 23 Aug? Krittika
At sunrise the Moon was at 34.9°: Krittika, pada 3.
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 3 at 33°20′. It leaves at 15:18, for Rohini.
Which yoga is it on Wed 23 Aug? Vyaghata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 161.6°: Vyaghata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 126.7° + 34.9° = 161.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 160°00′–173°20′ is the 13th, Vyaghata. It ends at 02:35 Thu, then Harshana.
Which karana is it on Wed 23 Aug? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 268.2°: the first half of Ashtami, Balava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ashtami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 09:09, when the lead reaches 270°; Kaulava until 22:00.
Which vara is Wed 23 Aug, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:17 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:17 to 05:18 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 23 Aug in (amanta)? Shravana
This month began at the new moon of 1 Aug, with the Sun in Karka: Shravana.
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: Karka gives Shravana. The Sun enters Simha on 16 Aug, inside the month. The next new moon, 30 Aug, finds it in Simha and begins Bhadrapada.
Which Hindu month is Wed 23 Aug in (purnimanta)? Bhadrapada
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Bhadrapada.
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 30 Aug, with the Sun in Simha, begins Bhadrapada. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Bhadrapada here, and Shravana in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Wed 23 Aug in? Vikram 1962 · Shaka 1827
Vikram Samvat 1962 began at the Chaitra new moon of 5 Apr 1905.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 5 Apr 1905, 02:23 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 134.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1962; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1827.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Wed 23 Aug? 23:19
The Moon rises here at 23:19.
What time is moonset on Wed 23 Aug? 12:50
The Moon was up at sunrise and set at 12:50; it rises again at 23:19, so this day's moonrise falls in its night.
The Moon was up at sunrise and sets at 12:50, in this day's daylight; it rises again at 23:19.
