What the sky brings in 2034
Beyond the dates the Indian Calendar lists, 2034 brings 4 eclipses - 2 solar and 2 lunar - of which 3 are above the horizon somewhere in India. The year also carries an Adhik Maas, the extra lunar month of Ashadha, running from 17 June 2034 to 15 July 2034. Vasant Panchami falls on 24 January, 11 days earlier in the year than in 2033 - a lunar year runs about eleven days short of a solar one.

Frequently asked questions about the Indian Calendar 2034
How many festivals and vrats does the Indian Calendar list in 2034?
The Indian Calendar lists 69 dates in 2034. The first is New Year on Sunday, 1 January 2034, and the last is Christmas on Monday, 25 December 2034.
What are the main festival dates in the Indian Calendar for 2034?

- New Year - Sunday, 1 January 2034
- National Youth Day - Thursday, 12 January 2034
- Bhogi / Lohri - Friday, 13 January 2034

- Mattu Pongal - Sunday, 15 January 2034
- Parakram Diwas (Netaji Jayanti) - Monday, 23 January 2034
Which month of 2034 has the most observances in the Indian Calendar?
April 2034 is the fullest month with 12 dates, including Hanuman Jayanti, Good Friday, Easter, Ambedkar Jayanti, Bohag Bihu (Rongali Bihu), Pana Sankranti (Maha Vishuba), Puthandu (Tamil New Year), Vaisakhi.
Which traditional year does 2034 correspond to in the Indian Calendar?
The Gregorian year 2034 spans Shaka Samvat 1955 – 1956. 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.
Will there be an Adhik Maas in 2034?
Yes. 2034 carries an Adhik Maas (Ashadha (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 2034 dates can look out of place beside a neighbouring year.
Will there be any eclipses in 2034?
2034 has 4 eclipses:
- 20 March 2034 - Total solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal will be observed
- 4 April 2034 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), penumbral only, so no Sutak will be observed
- 12 September 2034 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 28 September 2034 - Partial lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal will be observed
Sutak Kaal is observed only for an eclipse actually visible where you are, so 2 of these will be kept in India.
Will Guru or Shani change sign in 2034?
Yes - 2 sign changes among the slow grahas in 2034:
- Guru (Jupiter) enters Meena on 28 March 2034
- Shani (Saturn) enters Karka on 13 July 2034
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 2034?
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 Indian Calendar opens on the current month.
