As per directions from SGPC, starting in 1999, all religious holidays will be observed according to the
new
Nanakshahi Calendar.
Nanakshahi calendar starts with the birth of Guru Nanak Dev Ji in 1469. The Sikh New Year begins with
Chet 1, which in the regular calendar is March 14.
The modification is that, now the calendar is based on the solar year, instead of the lunar cycle – which
means that the dates wouldn’t fluctuate from year to year as they did previously.
