How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Fri 20 Jan? Shukla Dwitiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 22.7°: 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, 07:19 here. Pratipada ended at 10:07 Thu, before it. Dwitiya ends at 09:52, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 18 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Fri 20 Jan? 05:25–06:22
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:25–06:22.

Which nakshatra is it on Fri 20 Jan? Dhanishtha
At sunrise the Moon was at 299.1°: Dhanishtha, pada 2.
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 2 at 296°40′. It leaves at 21:21, for Shatabhisha.
Which yoga is it on Fri 20 Jan? Vyatipata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 575.5°, one turn and 215.5°: Vyatipata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 276.4° + 299.1° = 575.5°, one full turn and 215.5°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 02:36 Sat, then Variyana.
Which karana is it on Fri 20 Jan? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 22.7°: the second half of Dwitiya, Kaulava.
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 ended at 21:54 Thu, when the lead reached 18°; Kaulava runs until 09:52.
Which vara is Fri 20 Jan, and from when? Shukrawara
This day began at sunrise, 07:19 on Friday: Shukrawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:19 to 07:18 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.
Which Hindu month is Fri 20 Jan in (amanta)? Magha
This month began at the new moon of 18 Jan, with the Sun in Makara: Magha.
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: Makara gives Magha. The Sun enters Kumbha on 12 Feb, inside the month. The next new moon, 17 Feb, finds it in Kumbha and begins Phalguna.
Which Hindu month is Fri 20 Jan in (purnimanta)? Magha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Magha.
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 18 Jan, with the Sun in Makara, began Magha. This Shukla paksha reads Magha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Fri 20 Jan in? Vikram 2006 · Shaka 1871
Vikram Samvat 2006 began at the Chaitra new moon of 29 Mar 1949.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 29 Mar 1949, 18:10 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 290.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2006; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1871.
