How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Mon 8 Aug? Shukla Shashthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 61.4°: Shukla Shashthi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 60°–72° is the 6th, Shukla Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:26 here. Panchami ended at 03:28, before it. Shashthi ends at 05:44 Tue, when the lead reaches 72°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 2 Aug, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

Which nakshatra is it on Mon 8 Aug? Hasta
At sunrise the Moon was at 173.3°: Hasta, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Hasta spans 160°00′–173°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 170°. It leaves at 06:31, for Chitra.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 16:34, when the lead reaches 66°; Taitila until 05:44 Tue.
Which vara is Mon 8 Aug, and from when? Somawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:26 on Monday: Somawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:26 to 06:27 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.
Which Hindu month is Mon 8 Aug in (amanta)? Shravana
This month began at the new moon of 2 Aug, with the Sun in Karka: Shravana.
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: Karka gives Shravana. The Sun enters Simha on 16 Aug, inside the month. The next new moon, 1 Sep, finds it in Simha and begins Bhadrapada.
Which Hindu month is Mon 8 Aug in (purnimanta)? Shravana
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Shravana.
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 2 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, began Shravana. This Shukla paksha reads Shravana in both counts.
Which samvat year is Mon 8 Aug 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, 14:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 117.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2073; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1938.
