Nirnay

Nirnay (also known as the Panchang, an Indian almanac) provides information on the daily movement of the stars, for the Hindu Samvat calendar year 2069-2070. The year starts from Vaishakh Sud-1 (11 April, 2013) and ends on the Fagun Vad Amavasya (30 March, 2014). The almanac can be used to forecast celestial phenomena including solar eclipses, weather (rain, dry spells, etc.), and other occurrences. It follows traditional units of Indian timekeeping and provides all important dates and their calculation in tabular form. The Swaminarayan religion follows this Indian Vedic almanac. It is commonly consulted for the purpose of planning travel, finances, and other aspects of life. The almanac has been evolving for the past 5,000 years.
