Bong Calendar India Version 2.3.8

We have made few changes and incorporated some new features in Bong Calendar India. We will list those here , hope it will be helpful.

1. Now you have the 'tithi' timing for festive days right there on the grid itself . Click on the marked cell and get the information .




If you click on the cells with a gray triangle shown at top right , you will get a pop up like below containing the 'tithi' timing.





*** Please note this information is available on both the 'Panjika' s (only) for current Bengali Year in calendar page . And it differs for some instances . ( If you go by the correctness of it , 'Drik/Bishudha Sidhanta' gives you accurate result for any given day . On the other hand Surya Sidhanta provides wrong data most of the time . Some old 'Panjika' makers still use Surya Sidhanta. So , it is up to your belief . )

2. Our date converter has a new look :

Check out the new next and previous buttons for dates .


Thank you for using Bong Calendar .
Cheers ,

Bong Calendar ( India )



OutScar presents The Bong Calendar.  A Complete Bengali calendar for your Android phone. 

Our Application comes with a nice widget for your home screen, to keep track of Bengali dates! If you are residing somewhere other than India , it works as a dual clock for you . It shows the current time in India in Bengali along with the system date and time . Try the widget and share your thoughts with us. It will help us to make it better for you.

It also covers all the lunar days (tithi). So if you need to know the 'ekadoshi' , 'purnima' or the 'Omabosya'  etc. So you won’t miss anything.
Just install this app in your android phone and you won't need a Bengali calendar hard copy till 2036. The app covers all important calendar days! And do not forget to update the app at the beginning of the year , because we promise to update the current year important days like Puja , holidays etc. at the beginning of Bengali year ( month of April, if we stay alive!) .

Have you ever seen two bengali calendars or newspapers showing two different dates on a same day ? This happens because in west Bengal people follow two different schools of Bengali Calendars. The 'Drik/Bisudha Sidhanta Calculation' and 'The Surjya Sidhanta Based Calculation’. So if you get a mismatch,  just select the 'Ponjika' and you won't be disappointed ! We have covered it both. By the way 'Drik Sidhanta' is more scientific (just FYI).
Do you want to know your Bengali birth day ? Here is a way , install the Indian version of our application! And you will get some extra information as well . But this images can make you think that this is an astrology app, please don’t,  it is not an astrology app. But it is capable of telling your birth sign (sun & moon). But not your future!

Hope you will enjoy and if you do , please rate our application . And feel free to contact us with any query , likes , dislikes , we will be happy to address your needs.
