Hindu calendar June 2026
The Hindu calendar (panchang) names each day by the tithi, the lunar day, running at sunrise. Months run from one full moon to the next in North India (purnimanta), and the year is counted in Vikram Samvat from Chaitra.

How the Hindu calendar works
A lunar month is about 29.5 days, so twelve of them fall about 11 days short of the solar year. Roughly every third year an extra month (adhik maas) is added to keep the festivals in their seasons. In the dark half of each month, North India uses the name of the coming month (purnimanta), while Maharashtra, Gujarat and the South use the name of the month that is ending (amanta); this calendar shows both.
The Vikram Samvat year begins on Chaitra Shukla Pratipada, the day after the new moon in March or April, which is also the first day of Chaitra Navratri.
