Bhadrapada 2041 — Frequently Asked Questions
When does Bhadrapada Maas 2041 start?
In North India (Purnimanta calendar) Bhadrapada runs from Tuesday, 13 August 2041 to Tuesday, 10 September 2041. In Amanta-calendar regions it runs Tuesday, 27 August 2041 to Wednesday, 25 September 2041.
Why do Bhadrapada 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.
