The traditional Solah Karan Bhavna/Parv is described as running from Chaitra Krishna Ekam to Vaishakh Krishna Ekam. Using the 2026 panchang, that maps to early March through early April; this is an inference from the listed tithis in the calendar. The annual Solah Karan Vrat is shown on Bhadrapada Krishna Ekam, which in the 2026 New Delhi panchang falls on 29 August 2026. ( encyclopediaofjainism.com)
Spiritual Understanding
Solah Karan Bhavna is a very sacred Jain contemplation connected with purification of the inner self. During this period, devotees reflect on the sixteen bhavnas with devotion and discipline. ( encyclopediaofjainism.com)
Takeaway
If you mean the parv period, keep 4 March–3 April 2026 in mind. If you mean the one-day vrat, note 29 August 2026. Dates can vary slightly by sangh and location, so local Jain panchang is always best for final observance. ( encyclopediaofjainism.com)
