How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 23 Jan? Shukla Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 134.3°: Shukla Dwadashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 132°–144° is the 12th, Shukla Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:17 here. Ekadashi ended at 02:46, before it. Dwadashi ends at 03:01 Thu, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 13 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 23 Jan? 05:24–06:21
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:24–06:21.
The night of Tue 22 Jan ran from sunset 17:04 Tue to sunrise 07:17, 14 h 13 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 56 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 23 Jan? 11:52–12:31
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:52–12:31.
Daylight here, 07:17 to 17:06, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 39 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:52–12:31: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 23 Jan?
07:17–08:31 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 07:17 to 17:06, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 13 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:06 to 07:17 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 46 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 Jan? 12:12–13:25
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:12–13:25.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 23 Jan? 08:31–09:44
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 08:31–09:44.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 23 Jan? 10:58–12:12
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:58–12:12.
Daylight here runs 07:17 to 17:06, 9 h 49 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 13 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 Jan? 07:17
Day here: sunrise 07:17, sunset 17:06, 9 h 49 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 23 Jan? 17:06
Day here: sunrise 07:17, sunset 17:06, 9 h 49 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 9 h 49 m and the night until the next sunrise 14 h 11 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 23 Jan? Mrigashira
At sunrise the Moon was at 53.9°: Mrigashira, pada 1.
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 1 at 53°20′. It leaves at 07:07 Thu, for Ardra.
Which yoga is it on Wed 23 Jan? Indra
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 333.6°: Indra.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 279.7° + 53.9° = 333.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 333°20′–346°40′ is the 26th, Indra. It ends at 05:58 Thu, then Vaidhriti.
Which karana is it on Wed 23 Jan? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 134.3°: the first half of Dwadashi, Bava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 14:50, when the lead reaches 138°; Balava until 03:01 Thu.
Which vara is Wed 23 Jan, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 07:17 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:17 to 07:17 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 23 Jan in (amanta)? Pausha
This month began at the new moon of 13 Jan, 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, 11 Feb, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 23 Jan 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 13 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 23 Jan in? Vikram 1974 · Shaka 1839
Vikram Samvat 1974 began at the Chaitra new moon of 23 Mar 1917.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 23 Mar 1917, 07:04 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 300.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1974; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1839.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Wed 23 Jan? 13:39
The Moon rises here at 13:39.
What time is moonset on Wed 23 Jan? 05:09 Thu
The Moon was down at sunrise and rises at 13:39, in this day's daylight; it sets again at 05:09 Thu.
