How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Fri 8 Dec? Shukla Pratipada
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 2.3°: Shukla Pratipada.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 0°–12° is the 1st, Shukla Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 08:10 here. Amavasya ended at 03:51, before it. Pratipada ends at 02:06 Sat, when the lead reaches 12°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 8 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Fri 8 Dec? 06:13–07:11
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 06:13–07:11.
The night of Thu 7 Dec ran from sunset 17:33 Thu to sunrise 08:10, 14 h 37 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Which choghadiya is good on Fri 8 Dec?
08:10–09:20 is Chara, ruled by Shukra (Venus), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Friday's daylight, counted neutral.

Which nakshatra is it on Fri 8 Dec? Jyeshtha
At sunrise the Moon was at 234.8°: Jyeshtha, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Jyeshtha spans 226°40′–240°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 233°20′. It leaves at 17:05, for Mula.
Which yoga is it on Fri 8 Dec? Shula
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 467.3°, one turn and 107.3°: Shula.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 232.5° + 234.8° = 467.3°, one full turn and 107.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 04:25 Sat, then Ganda.
Which karana is it on Fri 8 Dec? Kinstughna
At sunrise the lead was 2.3°: the first half of Pratipada, Kinstughna.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Kinstughna and the second Bava. Kinstughna runs until 15:01, when the lead reaches 6°; Bava until 02:06 Sat.
Which vara is Fri 8 Dec, and from when? Shukrawara
This day began at sunrise, 08:10 on Friday: Shukrawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 08:10 to 08:11 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.
Which Hindu month is Fri 8 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 8 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, 6 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Fri 8 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 8 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Fri 8 Dec in? Vikram 2018 · Shaka 1883
Vikram Samvat 2018 began at the Chaitra new moon of 16 Mar 1961.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 16 Mar 1961, 22:50 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 259.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2018; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1883.
