About Bengali Calendar Now

Clear Bengali dates and observances with transparent sources and methods.

What we do

Show the Bengali date for each Gregorian day with a simple tithi label.
Publish Ekadashi, Amavasya, Purnima and festival listings sourced from Benimadhav Shil Ful Panjika.
Offer monthly pages, a yearly view and quick tables that load fast.

Primary source: We follow Benimadhav Shil Ful Panjika for observances and holidays. If any difference appears, we keep the Panjika result.

Our approach

Sourcing - Observances and holidays come from Benimadhav Shil Ful Panjika.
Calculations - We compute the daily Bengali date and an approximate tithi label for the grid. Full details are in the Methodology page.
Time zone - We use India Standard Time. No DST.

Editorial and sourcing policy

We review the Panjika each year and refresh the site data.
If other sources differ, we note the difference when it helps users and follow the Panjika.
Regional practice can vary. The current build targets India.

Corrections and updates

If you find a mistake, email Coinsmudra@gmail.com with the date and a Panjika reference if possible. We verify and correct confirmed issues. Important fixes are logged on the Methodology page.

Advertising and independence

We use ads to fund hosting and updates. Ads do not influence observance dates or content. Editorial choices are independent.

Limitations

The tithi label in each cell is a mean cycle approximation. It is for context.
Official Ekadashi, Amavasya and Purnima observances are shown as per the Panjika.
Near month boundaries some almanacs can differ. We keep the Panjika result.
