How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 1 May? Krishna Shashthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 247.7°: Krishna Shashthi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 240°–252° is the 21st, Krishna Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:59 here. Panchami ended at 11:52 Mon, before it. Shashthi ends at 14:22, when the lead reaches 252°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 25 Apr, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 1 May? 03:38–04:19
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:38–04:19.
The night of Mon 30 Apr ran from sunset 18:54 Mon to sunrise 04:59, 10 h 5 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 40 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 07:46–08:42, and the 7th of the night's 15, 22:56–23:36.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 1 May? 22:56–23:36
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 07:46–08:42, and the 7th of the night's 15, 22:56–23:36.
Daylight here, 04:59 to 18:55, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 55 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Tuesday is the 4th and the night's 7th, 07:46–08:42 and 22:56–23:36.
Which choghadiya is good on Tue 1 May?
04:59–06:43 is Roga, ruled by Mangala (Mars), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 04:59 to 18:55, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 44 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:55 to 04:58 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 15 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Daylight here runs 04:59 to 18:55, 13 h 56 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 44 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Tuesday Rahu Kaal is the 7th part, Yamaganda the 3rd and Gulikai Kalam the 5th.

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 1 May? Purva Ashadha
At sunrise the Moon was at 265.2°: Purva Ashadha, pada 4.
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 4 at 263°20′. It leaves at 08:01, for Uttara Ashadha.
Which yoga is it on Tue 1 May? Sadhya
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 282.6°: Sadhya.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 17.4° + 265.2° = 282.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 280°00′–293°20′ is the 22nd, Sadhya. It ends at 01:07 Wed, then Shubha.
Which karana is it on Tue 1 May? Vanija
At sunrise the lead was 247.7°: the second half of Shashthi, Vanija.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 01:07, when the lead reached 246°; Vanija runs until 14:22.
Which vara is Tue 1 May, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 04:59 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:59 to 04:58 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 1 May in (amanta)? Chaitra
This month began at the new moon of 11 Apr, with the Sun in Meena: Chaitra.
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: Meena gives Chaitra. The Sun enters Mesha on 13 Apr, inside the month. The next new moon, 10 May, finds it in Mesha and begins Vaishakha.
Which Hindu month is Tue 1 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Vaishakha.
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 10 May, with the Sun in Mesha, begins Vaishakha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Vaishakha here, and Chaitra in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Tue 1 May in? Vikram 2013 · Shaka 1878
Vikram Samvat 2013 began at the Chaitra new moon of 11 Apr 1956.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 11 Apr 1956, 05:38 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 19.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2013; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1878.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Tue 1 May? 00:17 Wed
The Moon rises here at 00:17 Wed.
What time is moonset on Tue 1 May? 09:44
The Moon was up at sunrise and set at 09:44; it rises again at 00:17 Wed, so this day's moonrise falls in its night.
