Tool Introduction

Tool Overview

A Nepali patro (पात्रो) is the everyday calendar of Nepal, laid out in Bikram Sambat months — Baisakh, Jestha, Ashadh, and so on. This tool renders a full BS month grid where every day carries its Nepali date (in Devanagari digits) alongside the corresponding Gregorian day, so you can plan against both calendars at once. Every Saturday — a weekly public holiday in Nepal — is shaded, and national holidays that fall on a fixed Bikram Sambat date (Nepali New Year, Republic Day, Constitution Day, Prithvi Jayanti, Maghe Sankranti, Martyrs' Day, Democracy Day) are marked automatically, along with internationally fixed observances such as Labour Day and Christmas. Movable lunar festivals — Dashain, Tihar, Teej, Shivaratri, Holi and the rest — shift date every year and are set annually by the Ministry of Home Affairs, so they are listed as the festivals each month usually brings rather than printed on a specific day; always confirm the exact day and any regional holidays against the official list. Everything is computed locally in your browser.

FAQ

What is a Nepali patro?+

A patro (पात्रो) is the Nepali calendar, arranged by the Bikram Sambat months — Baisakh, Jestha, Ashadh, Shrawan, Bhadra, Ashwin, Kartik, Mangsir, Poush, Magh, Falgun, and Chaitra. This tool shows a full BS month with the matching English (AD) date in every cell.

Does it show public holidays?+

It marks every Saturday (a weekly public holiday in Nepal), the national holidays that fall on a fixed Bikram Sambat date each year, and internationally fixed observances like Labour Day and Christmas. Movable lunar festivals such as Dashain and Tihar change date each year, so they are shown as the festivals a month usually brings rather than on a fixed day.

Why aren't Dashain and Tihar printed on exact days?+

Dashain, Tihar, Teej, Shivaratri, Holi and most major festivals follow the lunar calendar and are declared annually by the Nepal government, so their Bikram Sambat date shifts every year. Rather than risk printing a wrong date, the calendar lists these under the month they usually fall in and points you to the official Ministry of Home Affairs list for the exact day.

What years does the calendar cover?+

Bikram Sambat 1975 to 2099, which is roughly April 1918 to mid-April 2043 in the Gregorian calendar. You can jump to any month in that range with the dropdowns.

How do I find today's Nepali date?+

The calendar opens on the current Nepali month with today highlighted. If you have navigated away, tap the Today button to jump back.

Is the calendar accurate for official use?+

The Bikram Sambat month lengths and BS-to-AD mapping use the standard Nepali panchanga table also used by the Nepali date converter, so the dates themselves are reliable. For the definitive public-holiday list — including movable festivals and holidays specific to a religion, region, or office — always check the annual Ministry of Home Affairs notice.
