The National Calendar is an advanced modification of Indian Solar Calendars still existing in the regions. The names of the months as per Shaka Calendar are as follows: The first month in Indian Calendar is Chaitra and the last is Phalguna. The Shaka Calendar is based on the luni-solar system as per time, and consists of 12 months and 365 days. On an ethical front, astrologers use Panchang or Panchangam (Hindu Calendar based on Lunar Calendar) to fix the marriage date and provide auspicious muhurat after horoscope matching is done. Government still uses Gregorian calendar for administrative purposes and holidays are observed as per regional, ethnic and religious beliefs and traditions.

Hereby, due to Calendar Reform 1957 C.E., a formalized and structured lunisolar calendar was finalised as the National Calendar of India, where leap years corresponded with those mentioned in Gregorian calendar.Дespite numerous attempts to create a unified platform, there still exists several local variations. On the other hand, Islamic calendar was used by Muslims in India along with Indian Government using Gregorian calendar for administrative purposes. They found that these calendars were based on similar principles though prepared as per ancient customs and astronomical practices. After a survey conducted by Calendar Reform Committee during 1950s, it was concluded that around 30 different calendars were being used to set Hindu, Buddhist and Jain festivals.
