What is Nepali Calendar?

Nepali Calendar is the multicultural calendar with Events and Festivals of all the cultural ethnic groups of Nepali around the World. It consists of 12 months, each with a varying number of days and changes from year to year vary from 29 days to 32 days. One of the unique features of the Nepali calendar is that it is 56 years and 8½ months ahead of the Gregorian calendar. Nepali Calendar follows detail Nepali panchang to list important festivals like Dashain, Tihar, Teej, Chhath, Lhosar, Eid etc and brings you Daily Panchang of Nepal, Government and Bank holidays, Nepali festivals, puja, Marriage Dates, Bratabandtha and so on. Also cultural celebrations of different diversities in Nepal's ethnic, tribal, and social groups at your fingertip useful for the Nepalese community in Nepal and Abroad.

Nepali Calendar is the Bikram Sambat system which uses lunar months and solar sidereal year. The Nepalese new year falls on 1st Baishakh (mid of April). The months have a minimum of 28 (usually Mangshir/Poush) days and a maximum of 32 (usually Asar/Shrawan) days. Besides Nepal and India, Bikram Sambat Nepali Calendar is also used in other countries like Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia.

More on Nepali Calendar

King Chandragupt Vikramaditya, who was the then Hindu king of Ujjain (currently in Rajasthan, India), started a new calendar, and gave it his own name, (B)Vikram. ‘Sambat’, which means era in English, is used for any Calendar system in Sanskrit. So, the name of the calendar was developed as Vikram Sambat. With the development of relationship between Vikramaditya and Lichchhavi kings of Nepal via marriage, the calendar system was brought to Nepal. Since then, it was used in Nepal by the further generation of Kings for various purposes, until it was replaced by Sakha sambat in the Rana regime. But the Ranas again restored the Vikram Sambat Calendar in 1958, and since then it is used and known as official Nepali Calendar. 

It is also believed that since in around 58 BC (when the Vikram Sambat Calendar was started), there was no any existence of King Chandragupta Vikramaditya in India. So, the calendar may have been started and solely developed by the Lichchhavi kings of Nepal. That means, it was Mandev, the then king of Nepal who started the Nepali Calendar.
