How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 20 May? Shukla Ekadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 120°: Shukla Ekadashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 120°–132° is the 11th, Shukla Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:59 here. Dashami ended at 05:53, before it. Ekadashi ends at 07:08 Fri, when the lead reaches 132°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does Ekadashi hold two sunrises?
Ekadashi holds the sunrises of both Thu 20 and Fri 21 May here.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 05:53, before sunrise at 05:59, and ends at 07:08 Fri, after the next sunrise at 05:58 Fri. Both days read Ekadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.
Why does New Delhi read Dashami?
New Delhi reads Dashami, Sofia reads Ekadashi.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 20 May? Uttara Phalguni
At sunrise the Moon was at 155.4°: Uttara Phalguni, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Uttara Phalguni spans 146°40′–160°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 153°20′. It leaves at 14:58, for Hasta.
Which yoga is it on Thu 20 May? Vajra

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 35.4° + 155.4° = 190.8°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 186°40′–200°00′ is the 15th, Vajra. It ends at 22:40, then Siddhi.
Which karana is it on Thu 20 May? Vanija
At sunrise the lead was 120°: the first half of Ekadashi, Vanija.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija runs until 18:35, when the lead reaches 126°; Vishti until 07:08 Fri.
Which vara is Thu 20 May, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:59 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:59 to 05:58 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 20 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 9 May, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 14 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 8 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Thu 20 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Vaishakha.
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 9 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 20 May in? Vikram 2089 · Shaka 1954
Vikram Samvat 2089 began at the Chaitra new moon of 10 Apr 2032.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 10 Apr 2032, 05:39 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 38.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2089; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1954.
