How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sun 18 Aug? Shukla Chaturdashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 157.8°: 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, 06:36 here. Trayodashi ended at 03:21, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 00:35 Mon, when the lead reaches 168°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 4 Aug, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sun 18 Aug? 05:15–05:56
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:15–05:56.
The night of Sat 17 Aug ran from sunset 20:25 Sat to sunrise 06:36, 10 h 11 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 40 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Sun 18 Aug? 13:02–13:57
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 13:02–13:57.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sun 18 Aug? 18:33–19:28
Dur Muhurtam is the 14th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 18:33–19:28.
Daylight here, 06:36 to 20:23, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 55 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Sunday is the 14th, 18:33–19:28.
Which choghadiya is good on Sun 18 Aug?
06:36–08:20 is Udvega, ruled by Surya (the Sun), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Sunday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 06:36 to 20:23, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 43 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 20:23 to 06:37 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 16 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 Sun 18 Aug? 18:40–20:23
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 8th of 8 equal parts of Sunday's daylight: 18:40–20:23.
When is Yamagandam on Sun 18 Aug? 13:30–15:13
Yamaganda is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Sunday's daylight: 13:30–15:13.

Daylight here runs 06:36 to 20:23, 13 h 47 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 43 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Sunday Rahu Kaal is the 8th part, Yamaganda the 5th and Gulikai Kalam the 7th.

Which nakshatra is it on Sun 18 Aug? Uttara Ashadha
At sunrise the Moon was at 279.3°: Uttara Ashadha, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Uttara Ashadha spans 266°40′–280°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 276°40′. It leaves at 07:44, for Shravana.
Which yoga is it on Sun 18 Aug? Saubhagya
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 400.8°, one turn and 40.8°: Saubhagya.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 121.5° + 279.3° = 400.8°, one full turn and 40.8°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 40°00′–53°20′ is the 4th, Saubhagya. It ends at 01:58 Mon, then Shobhana.
Which karana is it on Sun 18 Aug? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 157.8°: 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 14:01, when the lead reaches 162°; Vanija until 00:35 Mon.
Which vara is Sun 18 Aug, and from when? Raviwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:36 on Sunday: Raviwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:36 to 06:37 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.
Which Hindu month is Sun 18 Aug in (amanta)? Shravana
This month began at the new moon of 4 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, 3 Sep, finds it in Simha and begins Bhadrapada.
Which Hindu month is Sun 18 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 4 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, began Shravana. This Shukla paksha reads Shravana in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sun 18 Aug in? Vikram 2081 · Shaka 1946
Vikram Samvat 2081 began at the Chaitra new moon of 8 Apr 2024.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 8 Apr 2024, 21:20 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 126.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2081; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1946.
