Pohela Boishakh is the first day of the Bengali calendar.

Pohela Boishakh is the first day of the Bengali calendar, celebrated on 14 April in Bangladesh and on 15 April in the Indian state of West Bengal by the Bengali people and also by minor Bengali communities in other Indian states, including Assam, Jharkhand and Orrisa.

It coincides with the New Year's days of numerous Southern Asian calendars like Tamil new year Puthandu.

The traditional greeting for Bengali New Year is "Shubhô Nôbobôrsho" which is literally "Happy New Year".

In Bengali, Poila stands for ‘first’ and Boishakh is the first month of the Bengali calendar.
