Samvatsari date 2026
For the year 2026, Jain calendars are not fully uniform about Samvatsari, so it is important to follow your local Jain sangh’s panchang. Broadly:
- Śvetāmbara Samvatsari (last day of Paryushan):
- Digambar Kṣamāvaṇī (forgiveness day, often loosely also called Samvatsari):
- In some regions (especially certain Gujarati/ institutional calendars), Samvatsari is shown on Tuesday, 15 September 2026 because they follow a different tithi‑calculation / lunisolar convention.
Because of these differences, for actual observance you should rely on the panchang and announcement of your own derāsar / sangh / guru-varg for 2026.
