How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 3 Jan? Shukla Chaturdashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 157.3°: 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, 07:57 here. Trayodashi ended at 05:16, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 05:52 Sun, when the lead reaches 168°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 22 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Trayodashi?
New Delhi reads Trayodashi, Sofia reads Chaturdashi.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 3 Jan? Mrigashira
At sunrise the Moon was at 55.8°: Mrigashira, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Mrigashira spans 53°20′–66°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 53°20′. It leaves at 04:31 Sun, for Ardra.
Which yoga is it on Sat 3 Jan? Shukla
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 314.3°: Shukla.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 258.5° + 55.8° = 314.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 306°40′–320°00′ is the 24th, Shukla. It ends at 18:01, then Brahma.
Which karana is it on Sat 3 Jan? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 157.3°: the first half of Chaturdashi, Garaja.
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 runs until 17:31, when the lead reaches 162°; Vanija until 05:52 Sun.
Which vara is Sat 3 Jan, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 07:57 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:57 to 07:57 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 3 Jan in (amanta)? Pausha
This month began at the new moon of 22 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu: Pausha.
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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 14 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 20 Jan, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 3 Jan in (purnimanta)? Pausha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Pausha.
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 22 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 3 Jan in? Vikram 2071 · Shaka 1936
Vikram Samvat 2071 began at the Chaitra new moon of 30 Mar 2014.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 30 Mar 2014, 21:44 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 272.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2071; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1936.
