Ultimate Guide to Nepali Patro & Calendar 2083

The Nepali Patro is more than just a date tracker; it is the spiritual and cultural heartbeat of Nepal. Based on the Bikram Sambat (BS) era, which is approximately 56.7 years ahead of the Gregorian calendar, our digital patro provides accurate conversions and festival updates for 2083 and beyond.

Bikram Sambat (BS) System

Founded by King Vikramaditya, the Bikram Sambat is the official calendar of Nepal. It follows a solar sidereal year and lunar months, making it uniquely attuned to the seasons of the Himalayas. Months like Baishakh, Dashain-heavy Ashwin, and Tihar-filled Kartik mark the major transitions in the Nepali year.

The Significance of Tithi

Every day in the Nepali calendar is assigned a Tithi (Lunar day). Tithis like Ekadashi, Purnima (Full Moon), and Amavasya (New Moon) dictate religious fasts and celebrations. Our API ensures real-time Tithi calculation based on precise sunrise timings in Kathmandu.

Major Festivals of Nepal

Never miss a celebration. Our calendar tracks national holidays and regional jatras across the country.
