What is Anugraha
A perpetual (multi-year) Indian calendar, crafted as a gentle introduction to our luni-solar system of tracking time.
A timeless piece that bridges ancient knowledge with contemporary design, so that it can be proudly displayed in our modern living spaces.
Our calendar isn't just a time-keeping device—it's a cultural artifact that connects you to thousands of years of Indian astronomical tradition.
Why This Calendar Matters
With the international (Gregorian) calendar pervading our living spaces and devices, children grow up ignorant of the astronomical marvel that is the Indian calendar. Not taught at school either, the luni-solar system of tracking days is slowly fading into oblivion.
Enter the Anugraha calendar.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about the Anugraha Calendar.
Unlike conventional calendars that only track the Gregorian dates, the Anugraha Calendar incorporates traditional Indian lunar and solar elements such as Tithi, Nakṣatra, Tithi, Dina, Māsa, Ṛtu, and Saṃvatsara. It connects you gently with ancient Indian time-keeping traditions while functioning as a well-crafted object to proudly display in your living space.
Yes, the Anugraha Calendar is perpetual, meaning it's designed to be used year after year. This is unlike other calendars, which are only valid for a single year.
Not at all. While the calendar incorporates elements of Indian astronomical traditions, it's designed to be accessible to everyone. Instructions are included in every card, (and this site includes a user guide video), and the daily operation of the calendar is straightforward.
Currently, the Anugraha Calendar is available in English and Tamil. We're developing versions in Kannada, Telugu, Malayalam, and Devanagari, which will be released in the coming months. You can sign up to be notified when these versions become available.
The Gregorian elements function as a ‘marker’ to signal when updates have been missed. When you see that the Gregorian date is out of sync by (say) two days, it indicates the calendar has not been updated for that duration.

Our Story
Pronounced triv-any, our company, Trivany, was founded around the time of the Mahā Kumbha Melā, and named after the Triveṇī Saṅgama, the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers, where a ritual bath is recommended by our sages.
We founded Trivany to create products that reconnect us with our traditional systems, while remaining aligned with contemporary design sensibilities.
The seed for our first product, the Anugraha flip-style perpetual calendar, was sown when a basic version was created as a living room display. Its purpose was simple: to remind the family of upcoming Amāvāsyā and Ekādaśī tithis. To our surprise, our nine-year-old took it upon himself to keep the calendar updated daily, and in the process, became familiar with the Indian calendrical system. (It wasn't taught at his school.)
Witnessing how the calendar empowered a young child, a complete newcomer, to understand the Indian system of timekeeping inspired us to take the idea further: to refine the product and share it more widely. And thus, Trivany was born.
