Corrections to the Kamat Calendar

I am very surprised by the number of people relying on Kamat Festival Calendar to celebrate their festivities. I must do a better job of it in the future. Some notes & corrections:

• The observance of Karwa Chauth is on October 16th
• Deepavali the festival of lights is on November 16th.
• The Dasara Festival is on October 26th.

Q: How did you determine these festival dates?
A: Very good question, because I found no two sources matching all the dates.
I have a 2001 Kala-Nirnaya calendar that I bought in India. They have a website, but (possibly to promote their products), the information is not online. I have relied on this Panchang to determine the dates.
