How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 9 Dec? Shukla Shashthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 68°: Shukla Shashthi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 60°–72° is the 6th, Shukla Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:11 here. Panchami ended at 14:13 Wed, before it. Shashthi ends at 15:30, when the lead reaches 72°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 3 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 9 Dec? 05:14–06:12
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:14–06:12.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 9 Dec? Dhanishtha
At sunrise the Moon was at 301.7°: Dhanishtha, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Dhanishtha spans 293°20′–306°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 300°. It leaves at 16:42, for Shatabhisha.

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 535.4°, one turn and 175.4°: Harshana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 233.7° + 301.7° = 535.4°, one full turn and 175.4°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 03:06 Fri, then Vajra.
Which karana is it on Thu 9 Dec? Taitila
At sunrise the lead was 68°: the second half of Shashthi, Taitila.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 02:56, when the lead reached 66°; Taitila runs until 15:30.
Which vara is Thu 9 Dec, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 07:11 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:11 to 07:12 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 9 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 3 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 15 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 1 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Thu 9 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 3 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 9 Dec in? Vikram 1994 · Shaka 1859
Vikram Samvat 1994 began at the Chaitra new moon of 11 Apr 1937.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 11 Apr 1937, 08:09 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 235.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1994; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1859.
