Nepal Sambat is typically a Nepali era, but not the official one. This is used generally by Newars. In about 880 A.D. one Shankhadhar Sakhwa is believed to have taken away lots of sand from a river on a particular day all of which turned into gold and with it, he paid off all existing debts of people of that time in Nepal. This era is known to have started from that time.
