How does the Telugu Calendar work?
The Telugu Calendar follows Chandramana (amanta) lunar months, each ending on Amavasya; the year begins at Ugadi. Each month has a Shukla (bright) and Krishna (dark) paksha of about fifteen tithis, and an Adhika masa is added about every three years to stay in step with the seasons. Festivals still follow the lunar tithi, so their dates move each year.
