How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 18 May? Shukla Pratipada
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 0.7°: 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, 05:40 here. Amavasya ended at 04:19, before it. Pratipada ends at 03:06 Thu, when the lead reaches 12°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 18 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Amavasya?
New Delhi reads Amavasya, Sevan reads Pratipada.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.
New Delhi · IST
Sunrise here, 05:28, came before Amavasya ended at 05:49: this day reads Amavasya. Pratipada ends at 04:36 Thu, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Pratipada: it is kshaya.
Sevan · UTC+4
Sunrise here, 05:40, came after Amavasya ended at 04:19: this day reads Pratipada.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 18 May? 04:24–05:02
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:24–05:02.
The night of Tue 17 May ran from sunset 20:12 Tue to sunrise 05:40, 9 h 28 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 18 May? 12:27–13:25
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:27–13:25.
Daylight here, 05:40 to 20:13, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 12:27–13:25: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 18 May?
05:40–07:29 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:40 to 20:13, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 49 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 20:13 to 05:39 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 10 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 Wed 18 May? 12:56–14:45
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:56–14:45.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 18 May? 07:29–09:18
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:29–09:18.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 18 May? 11:07–12:56
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:07–12:56.
Daylight here runs 05:40 to 20:13, 14 h 33 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 49 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 18 May? Krittika
At sunrise the Moon was at 33.8°: Krittika, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Krittika spans 26°40′–40°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 33°20′. It leaves at 16:35, for Rohini.
Which yoga is it on Wed 18 May? Atiganda
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 66.9°: Atiganda.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 33.1° + 33.8° = 66.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 66°40′–80°00′ is the 6th, Atiganda. It ends at 03:08 Thu, then Sukarma.
Which karana is it on Wed 18 May? Kinstughna
At sunrise the lead was 0.7°: 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 15:46, when the lead reaches 6°; Bava until 03:06 Thu.
Which vara is Wed 18 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:40 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:40 to 05:39 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 18 May in (amanta)? Jyeshtha
This month began at the new moon of 18 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha: Jyeshtha.
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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 15 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 16 Jun, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 18 May in (purnimanta)? Jyeshtha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Jyeshtha.
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 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha. This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 18 May in? Vikram 2129 · Shaka 1994
Vikram Samvat 2129 began at the Chaitra new moon of 20 Mar 2072.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2072, 00:22 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 57.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2129; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1994.
