At sunrise (07:18 IST) the tithi in Surat is Krishna Ashtami. It lasts until 05:42, 17 Jan, after which Krishna Navami begins. A tithi is one of 30 lunar days, each the time the Moon takes to gain 12 degrees on the Sun.

Panchang means five limbs: tithi (lunar day), vara (weekday), nakshatra (the Moon's lunar mansion), yoga (from the combined longitude of Sun and Moon) and karana (half a tithi). Each is read at local sunrise for the day.
It is Pausha (amanta) / Magha (purnimanta), Krishna paksha, in Vikram Samvat 2087 (Shaka 1952). North Indian calendars count months purnimanta (ending on the full moon); much of South and West India counts amanta (ending on the new moon), so the month name can differ in the dark fortnight.
