Age Calculator

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I calculate my exact age?+
  Enter your date of birth and press Calculate age. The calculator works out years, months, and days precisely — handling leap years and different month lengths automatically. You also get the total in months, days, hours, and minutes.
• How is age calculated from date of birth?+
  Age = Today's date − Date of birth. The formula finds whole completed years first, then the remaining months, and finally the leftover days. Leap years (where February has 29 days instead of 28) are factored in so the answer is always precise.
• How do I calculate age in Excel from date of birth?+
  Use Excel's DATEDIF function: =DATEDIF(A2, TODAY(), "Y") for complete years. For a full breakdown: =DATEDIF(A2,TODAY(),"Y")&" yrs, "&DATEDIF(A2,TODAY(),"YM")&" months, "&DATEDIF(A2,TODAY(),"MD")&" days". Our calculator does all this in one click without any formula.
• Can I calculate age on a specific past or future date?+
  Yes — change the Calculate age as of field to any date you need. This is useful for checking age eligibility for exams (NEET, JEE, SSC), pension schemes, government schemes, or for historical records and legal purposes.
• What is the legal age of majority in India?+
  18 is the age of majority in India for most purposes — voting, signing contracts, and obtaining a driving licence. The minimum marriage age is 18 for women and 21 for men under current law. Senior citizen benefits typically start at 60.
• How many days until my next birthday?+
  The calculator automatically shows your next birthday countdown at the bottom of the results. If today happens to be your birthday, you'll see a 🎉 celebration message instead of a day count.
