Kutipan[sunting | sunting sumber]
- ^ a b Government of India (1955), "The Saka Era", Report of the Calendar Reform Committee, m/s. 255–256
- ^ Like all Indian eras, the Śaka era uses expired, elapsed, or complete years, where a year must have elapsed before it can be counted. This is similar to the Western method of determining a person's age, whose first year must have been completed before that person reaches one year old. The uncounted first year of the era is numbered as year zero. This differs from Western eras which use current years.[1]
