Ashadha 2037 — Frequently Asked Questions
When does Ashadha Maas 2037 start?
In North India (Purnimanta calendar) Ashadha runs from Sunday, 28 June 2037 to Monday, 27 July 2037. In Amanta-calendar regions it runs Tuesday, 14 July 2037 to Tuesday, 11 August 2037.
Why do Ashadha dates differ in North and South India?
Because the two regions follow different lunar calendars. In the Purnimanta calendar (North India) a month ends on the Purnima, so it starts about 15 days earlier than in Amanta. In the Amanta calendar (Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Goa, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu) the month runs new-moon to new-moon.
