Explanation: The Indian national calendar (sometimes called Saka calendar) is the official civil calendar in use in India. It is used, alongside the Gregorian calendar, by the Gazette of India, news broadcasts by All India Radio, and calendars and communications issued by the Government of India.
The term may also ambiguously refer to the Hindu calendar, and the Saka era is commonly used by different calendars as well.

मेरी समझ से यहाँ पर 1892 Saka या Saka Era 1892 या Saka Year 1892 के रूप में ही लिखा जाना चाहिए। विस्तृत जानकारी मेरे द्वारा प्रदत्त उत्तर में वर्णित लिंकों में मिल सकती है।
Shakya or Sakya or Shak or Sak and Shaka or Saka are one an the same thing only difference is of the pronunciation. It is customary in India to pronounce Sh- in different ways such as S- or even as H-. In any way the Shakya Samvat is the Shakya Era followed in India alongside other Calender systems like Bikrmi-Samvat and Saptrishi Samvat. This is because of cultural diversity of India. So long as Sh-<>S-is concerned we have examples as Shankh<>Sankh, Shakti<>Sakti, Shagun<>Sagun, Shanti<>Santi and many more.
