When to start in 2026 for varshitap
Varshitap in 2026 is observed starting on the 8th day of the bright half (Shukla) of Chaitra, and it ends on the 3rd day of the bright half (Shukla) of Vaishakh—i.e., Vaishakh Shukla Tritiya (Akshaya Tritiya). Exact Gregorian dates shift each year because they follow the Jain lunisolar calendar. For 2026, the start is fixed to Chaitra Shukla Ashtami and the end to Vaishakh Shukla Tritiya according to the Jain calendar. To know the precise Gregorian dates for 2026, please consult a Jain Panchang for that year. You can read more here
