The date, 21st October 2006, for Deepavali is based on the calculations as before. It will be counter-checked with the Indian Almanacs when they are available towards the end of 2005 as the actual Deepavali date is based on the Indian Almanacs. Should there be a difference, the Ministry of Manpower would announce it accordingly towards the end of 2005.

Some of the festival dates are only confirmed nearer the date. Please check with your nearest STB office to ensure that you get the most updated information.
