Timings shown for New Delhi (IST) at sunrise - use the city box at the top to change it. Solar months begin by each tradition's own Sankranti rule (same-day, next-day, sunset or aparahna). Era years and lunar month names follow standard Vedic calculations and may differ slightly from regional almanacs around an Adhik Maas.
Bengali Panjika 1958 - festivals and vrats through the year
The Bengali Panjika lists 274 dates in 1958, opening with Dharma Savarni Manvadi on 1 January and closing with Sankashti Chaturthi on 29 December. Of these, 209 are vrats (fasting observances). November is the fullest month with 30 dates. The year runs through Bangabda 1364 – 1365. 1958 carries an Adhik Maas (Shravana (Adhik)), the extra lunar month that pushes several festivals later than usual.

What happened in the sky in 1958
Beyond the dates the Bengali Panjika lists, 1958 brought 5 eclipses - 2 solar and 3 lunar - of which 3 were above the horizon somewhere in India. The year also carried an Adhik Maas, the extra lunar month of Shravana, running from 17 July 1958 to 15 August 1958. Vasant Panchami fell on 24 January, 12 days earlier in the year than in 1957 - a lunar year runs about eleven days short of a solar one.

Frequently asked questions about the Bengali Panjika 1958
How many festivals and vrats does the Bengali Panjika list in 1958?
The Bengali Panjika lists 274 dates in 1958, of which 209 are vrats. The first is Dharma Savarni Manvadi on Wednesday, 1 January 1958, and the last is Sankashti Chaturthi on Monday, 29 December 1958.
What are the main festival dates in the Bengali Panjika for 1958?
The first major observances of 1958 are:
- Bhogi / Lohri - Monday, 13 January 1958
- Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Tuesday, 14 January 1958
- Vasant Panchami - Friday, 24 January 1958
- Bhishma Ashtami - Tuesday, 28 January 1958
- Maha Shivaratri - Sunday, 16 February 1958
- Holika Dahan - Wednesday, 5 March 1958
Which month of 1958 has the most observances in the Bengali Panjika?
November 1958 is the fullest month with 30 dates, including Kalashtami, Rama Ekadashi, Bhoot Chaturdashi, Dhanteras, Masik Shivaratri, Diwali (Lakshmi Puja), Kali Puja, Narak Chaturdashi (Abhyang Snan).
Which traditional year does 1958 correspond to in the Bengali Panjika?
The Gregorian year 1958 spans Bangabda 1364 – 1365. The traditional year does not begin on 1 January, so one Gregorian year usually covers the end of one era year and the start of the next.
Did 1958 have an Adhik Maas?
Yes. 1958 carried an Adhik Maas (Shravana (Adhik)), the extra lunar month inserted roughly every third year to keep the lunar calendar in step with the solar one. Festivals falling after it shift later in the Gregorian year, which is why 1958 dates can look out of place beside a neighbouring year.
Were there any eclipses in 1958?
1958 had 5 eclipses:
- 4 April 1958 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
- 19 April 1958 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 3 May 1958 - Partial lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 13 October 1958 - Total solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 27 October 1958 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), penumbral only, so no Sutak was observed
Sutak Kaal is observed only for an eclipse actually visible where you are, so 2 of these were kept in India.
Did Guru or Shani change sign in 1958?
Yes - 6 sign changes among the slow grahas in 1958:
- Shani (Saturn) entered Dhanu on 8 February 1958
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Kanya on 18 May 1958, moving retrograde
- Shani (Saturn) entered Vrishchika on 2 June 1958, moving retrograde
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Tula on 21 July 1958
- Shani (Saturn) entered Dhanu on 7 November 1958
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Vrishchika on 28 December 1958
Jupiter takes about a year to cross one sign and Saturn about two and a half, so these transits colour the whole year rather than a single week.
How do I see the tithi and nakshatra for a specific date in 1958?
Use the month grid above: pick a month from the selector, then tap any day to open its full panchang - tithi with start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Set your city in the box at the top first, because these timings are sunrise-based and shift with location. The Bengali Panjika opens on the current month.
About the Bengali Panjika
The Bengali Panjika (Bangabda). Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and festivals, with the Bengali solar month and the San (Bangabda) year.
Each day lists its tithi and paksha, the nakshatra, the weekday (vaar) and any festivals or vrats. Tap any day to see the full panchang for that date - tithi start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Use the month and year selectors to browse any year in the archive or plan ahead into the coming years.
This calendar names the tithi and festivals for each day. For sunrise, Rahu Kalam and muhurat windows on a chosen date, open the Panchang. Other regional calendars are on the Calendars index. Fast stories live under Vrat Katha.
