The Kalachuri Era was a Hindu system of year numbering started by the Abhira King Isvarasena,[1] in which the year numbering started at some time from 248-250 CE.[1][2] It was first used in Gujarat and Maharashtra, from where it spread to Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh where it was used until the 13th century CE.[2]
