This era is supposed to have started from the foundation of the Coch kingdom by Candana in 1510 A.D. Its first year is given as corresponding to year 914 of the Bengali era. It was used in Cochbihar and the neighbouring areas of Bhutan, Assam, Cachar and Manipur. Its use is noticed in some of the Cochbihar records,¹ many of which are dated in the Śaka and Bengali eras.
