How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Fri 12 Aug? Shukla Navami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 105.2°: Shukla Navami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 96°–108° is the 9th, Shukla Navami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:30 here. Ashtami ended at 10:29 Thu, before it. Navami ends at 12:31, when the lead reaches 108°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 2 Aug, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Fri 12 Aug? 05:10–05:50
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:10–05:50.
The night of Thu 11 Aug ran from sunset 20:33 Thu to sunrise 06:30, 9 h 57 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 39 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas

When is Dur Muhurtam on Fri 12 Aug? 13:59–14:55
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th and 9th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 09:18–10:14 and 13:59–14:55.
Daylight here, 06:30 to 20:32, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 56 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Friday is the 4th and 9th, 09:18–10:14 and 13:59–14:55.
Which choghadiya is good on Fri 12 Aug?
06:30–08:15 is Chara, ruled by Shukra (Venus), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Friday's daylight, counted neutral.
Daylight here, 06:30 to 20:32, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 45 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 20:32 to 06:31 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 14 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Which nakshatra is it on Fri 12 Aug? Anuradha
At sunrise the Moon was at 221°: Anuradha, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Anuradha spans 213°20′–226°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 220°. It leaves at 17:46, for Jyeshtha.
Which yoga is it on Fri 12 Aug? Indra
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 336.8°: Indra.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 115.8° + 221° = 336.8°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 333°20′–346°40′ is the 26th, Indra. It ends at 00:40 Sat, then Vaidhriti.
Which karana is it on Fri 12 Aug? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 105.2°: the second half of Navami, Kaulava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Navami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava ended at 23:33 Thu, when the lead reached 102°; Kaulava runs until 12:31.
Which vara is Fri 12 Aug, and from when? Shukrawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:30 on Friday: Shukrawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:30 to 06:31 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.
Which Hindu month is Fri 12 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 Fri 12 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 Fri 12 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 121.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2073; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1938.
