Samvatsar or "Samvatsara" (संवत्सर) is a Sanskrit term for "year". In the Hindu calendar, there are 60 Samvatsars, each of which has a name. Once all 60 samvatsars are over, the cycle starts over again. On occasion, one will be skipped, as the count is based on the zodiac position of Jupiter, whose period around the Sun is slightly less than 12 years (the full cycle of 60 covers five Jovian years).

The sixty Samvatsars are divided into 3 groups of 20 Samvatsars each. The first 20 from Prabhava to Vyaya are assigned to Brahma. The next 20 from Sarvajit to Parabhava to Vishnu and the last 20 to Shiva.
