Assamese Calendar অসমীয়া পঞ্জিকা
Structurally close to the Bengali calendar (and written in a closely related script), the Assamese Panjika runs on the solar year, with each month beginning at a fixed solar transition rather than a lunar phase.

Worth knowing
Assam celebrates three separate Bihu festivals a year (Rongali, Kati, and Magh) — more than almost any other regional calendar's festival cycle — each tied to a different stage of the agricultural year.
This is one of several living regional calendar traditions across India, all ultimately related to the same Panchang principles. See the Hindu Calendar overview for how they connect, or The Sanskrit Calendar for the pan-Indian Panchang system this site covers in depth.
