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.

What happened in the sky in 1960
Beyond the dates the Gujarati Panchang lists, 1960 brought 4 eclipses - 2 solar and 2 lunar - of which 1 was above the horizon somewhere in India. Vasant Panchami fell on 1 February, 11 days earlier in the year than in 1959 - a lunar year runs about eleven days short of a solar one.
Eclipses of 1960
| Date (IST) | Eclipse | Gujarati date | Seen from India |
|---|---|---|---|
| 13 Mar 1:57 PM | Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan) on Holi / Dhuleti / Shimga | Phaguna Punam | Not visible |

Sutak Kaal was observed for 1 of these.

Frequently asked questions about the Gujarati Panchang 1960
How many festivals and vrats does the Gujarati Panchang list in 1960?
The Gujarati Panchang lists 260 dates in 1960, of which 211 are vrats. The first is Vinayaka Chaturthi on Saturday, 2 January 1960, and the last is Pradosh Vrat on Friday, 30 December 1960.
What are the main festival dates in the Gujarati Panchang for 1960?
The first major observances of 1960 are:
- Bhogi / Lohri - Wednesday, 13 January 1960
- Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Thursday, 14 January 1960
- Vasant Panchami - Monday, 1 February 1960
- Bhishma Ashtami - Thursday, 4 February 1960
- Maha Shivaratri - Thursday, 25 February 1960
- Holika Dahan - Saturday, 12 March 1960
Which month of 1960 has the most observances in the Gujarati Panchang?
October 1960 is the fullest month with 29 dates, including Papankusha Ekadashi, Pradosh Vrat, Anvadhan, Ashwina Purnima Vrat, Sharad Purnima, Valmiki Jayanti, Ishti, Ahoi Ashtami.
Which traditional year does 1960 correspond to in the Gujarati Panchang?
The Gregorian year 1960 spans Gujarati Samvat 2015 – 2016. 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 1960 have an Adhik Maas?
No. 1960 had twelve lunar months with no Adhik Maas, so its festival dates fall in their usual Gregorian window rather than being pushed later by an intercalary month.
Were there any eclipses in 1960?
1960 had 4 eclipses:
- 13 March 1960 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
- 27 March 1960 - Partial solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 5 September 1960 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 21 September 1960 - Partial solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
Sutak Kaal is observed only for an eclipse actually visible where you are, so 1 of these was kept in India.
Did Guru or Shani change sign in 1960?
Yes - 1 sign change among the slow grahas in 1960:
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Dhanu on 22 January 1960
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 1960?
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 Gujarati Panchang opens on the current month.
About the Gujarati Panchang
The Gujarati Panchang (Vikram Samvat with the Kartika new year). Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and festivals, with the Samvat year and the Amanta month.
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.
