Terms & conditions
Last updated: 17 September 2026
Accepting these terms
By using festcountdown.com, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree with them, please don't use the site. They apply to everyone who visits, whether or not you use the countdowns or calculators.
What this site provides
festcountdown is a free information tool. It publishes festival dates, live countdowns and auspicious-timing (muhurat and Choghadiya) calculations. It also publishes explanations, wishes and gift suggestions. Everything is provided as-is, for general reference. There is no account, subscription or paid tier, and there is no service-level guarantee that the site will be available or uninterrupted.
Accuracy of dates and timings
We work hard to get dates and timings right. We check festival dates against Drik Ganit panchang each year, and we work out sunrise and sunset for the city you select.
Even so, these timings are a reference, not a religious authority. Panchang traditions differ. Purnimanta and Amanta reckonings, regional customs and different calculation methods can put a festival or a muhurat on a different day or at a different minute. Some windows, such as lagna-based muhurat, can't be worked out reliably for each city. We publish those as New Delhi reference times and say so on the page. If the exact timing matters to you religiously, please confirm it with your family priest or a local panchang. We accept no liability for observances performed on the basis of timings shown here.
Not professional advice
Nothing on this site is religious, legal, financial, medical or astrological advice. The gift suggestions are editorial opinion, not product endorsements or purchase recommendations. Prices shown are rough guides and change often.
Third-party links
The gift ideas and some other sections link to third-party websites, including retailers. We don't control those sites. We aren't responsible for their content, prices, availability or privacy practices. If we start earning affiliate commission on any outbound link, we will say so clearly on the page that carries the link. We will also update our privacy policy.
Using our content
The text, design, code, icons and images on this site belong to festcountdown, except where noted. You're welcome to quote short extracts with a link back. The greeting images in our wishes sections are made to be downloaded and shared personally. Please don't republish our articles wholesale, scrape the site or resell our images. Nobody owns the festival names or the religious concepts described here.
Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, festcountdown is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of this site, or from being unable to use it. This includes any decision made on the basis of a date, timing or other information published here. The site is free, and you use it at your own discretion.
Changes to the site and these terms
We may add, change or remove pages, tools and festivals at any time. We update content each year as dates move. If these terms change, we'll update this page and the date at the top. If you keep using the site after a change, you accept the updated terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute relating to them will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts there.
