The Hindu calendar is lunisolar — months are anchored to the Moon (Tithi · Paksha · Masa) while the year stays aligned with the Sun via periodic adhika maasa (intercalary months). Every Hindu day is evaluated at sunrise; the calendar shifts a fraction across longitudes, which is why this tool uses your saved location.

Convert. The Gregorian → Hindu direction returns the Tithi, Paksha (Shukla / Krishna), Masa, Vara, and the two era years — Vikram Samvat (≈ +57 to Gregorian) and Shaka Samvat (≈ −78 to Gregorian). The reverse direction takes a Vikram Samvat year + masa + paksha + tithi and finds matching Gregorian dates; you may receive two when an adhika maasa is in play, or for a tithi that crosses a sunrise twice.

Year listings. Ekadashi falls twice per lunar month (Shukla and Krishna paksha) and so a year carries roughly 24 — occasionally 26 in adhika-maasa years. Sankranti is the solar transit; there are exactly 12 each year, the most-celebrated of which is Makar Sankranti (Sun → Capricorn, mid-January). Eclipse listings show the next 6 from your chosen year. The visible-at-peak flag is for your saved coordinates, and the line under each eclipse describes it as seen from there.

Hindu New Year. Most regions celebrate at Chaitra Shukla Pratipada (Gudi Padwa · Ugadi · Cheti Chand · Vikrami Samvat), late March / early April. Tamil Nadu (Puthandu), Kerala (Vishu), Punjab (Baisakhi), Bengal (Pohela Boishakh), and Assam (Bohag Bihu) anchor instead to Mesha Sankranti, ≈ 14 April.
