How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 21 Apr? Shukla Chaturdashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 167.7°: Shukla Chaturdashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 156°–168° is the 14th, Shukla Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:12 here. Trayodashi ended at 04:16 Wed, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 06:50, when the lead reaches 168°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 Apr, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does Chaturdashi hold two sunrises?
Chaturdashi holds the sunrises of both Wed 20 and Thu 21 Apr here.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturdashi began at 04:16 Wed, before sunrise at 06:13 Wed, and ends at 06:50, after the next sunrise at 06:12. Both days read Chaturdashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 21 Apr? 04:48–05:30
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:48–05:30.
The night of Wed 20 Apr ran from sunset 19:44 Wed to sunrise 06:12, 10 h 28 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 41 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Thu 21 Apr? 12:31–13:26
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 12:31–13:26.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 21 Apr? 10:43–11:37
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 10:43–11:37 and 16:08–17:02.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 21 Apr? 16:08–17:02
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 10:43–11:37 and 16:08–17:02.
Daylight here, 06:12 to 19:45, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 54 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Thursday is the 6th and 12th, 10:43–11:37 and 16:08–17:02.
Which choghadiya is good on Thu 21 Apr?
06:12–07:54 is Shubha, ruled by Guru (Jupiter), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:12 to 19:45, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 41 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 19:45 to 06:11 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 18 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 Thu 21 Apr? 14:40–16:22
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 6th of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight: 14:40–16:22.
When is Yamagandam on Thu 21 Apr? 06:12–07:54

Daylight here runs 06:12 to 19:45, 13 h 33 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 41 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Thursday Rahu Kaal is the 6th part, Yamaganda the 1st and Gulikai Kalam the 3rd.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 21 Apr? Chitra
At sunrise the Moon was at 175°: Chitra, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Chitra spans 173°20′–186°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 173°20′. It leaves at 05:48 Fri, for Swati.
Which yoga is it on Thu 21 Apr? Harshana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 182.3°: Harshana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 7.3° + 175° = 182.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 14:16, then Vajra.
Which karana is it on Thu 21 Apr? Vanija
At sunrise the lead was 167.7°: the second half of Chaturdashi, Vanija.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 17:33 Wed, when the lead reached 162°; Vanija runs until 06:50.
Which vara is Thu 21 Apr, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:12 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:12 to 06:11 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 21 Apr in (amanta)? Chaitra
This month began at the new moon of 7 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, 6 May, finds it in Mesha and begins Vaishakha.
Which Hindu month is Thu 21 Apr in (purnimanta)? Chaitra
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Chaitra.
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 7 Apr, with the Sun in Meena, began Chaitra. This Shukla paksha reads Chaitra in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 21 Apr in? Vikram 2073 · Shaka 1938
Vikram Samvat 2073 began at the Chaitra new moon of 7 Apr 2016.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2016, 15:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 13.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2073; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1938.
