Happy Dashain Wishes in Nepali Language 2026 (2083): 165+ Ready-to-Send Messages
Quick answer: Happy Dashain wishes in Nepali are short blessings shared during Bada Dashain and Vijaya Dashami that invoke tika, jamara, elders' blessings, and wishes for health, peace and prosperity. In 2026, Dashain runs from Ghatasthapana on Sunday, 11 October 2026 (Ashwin 25, 2083 BS) to Kojagrat Purnima on Sunday, 25 October 2026 (Kartik 8), with Vijaya Dashami (Tika day) on Wednesday, 21 October 2026 (Kartik 4, 2083 BS). The Nepal Panchang Nirnayak Bikas Samiti has fixed the best tika time at 10:26 AM. Every message below has a one-tap Copy button, an optional name field to personalise it, and direct send buttons for WhatsApp, Messenger, Viber, SMS and Email.
Most "Dashain wishes" pages hand you one long, undifferentiated list and leave the hardest part to you: deciding which message is right for whom, on which app. The wish you send your manager is not the wish you send your best friend. A 40-word blessing that reads beautifully on WhatsApp gets split into several parts as an SMS. A message written with तिमी will quietly offend an elder who expects तपाईं.
So this page is organised the way you actually send: first by platform (WhatsApp, Messenger, Viber, SMS, Email — each with the right length and tone), then by relationship (family, siblings, friends, office colleagues, boss, teachers, students, clients, partner, and Nepalis abroad), and then by day of the festival. Every wish is original, written in natural Nepali, and formatted to be sent as-is.
✍️ Personalise every wish with a name (optional)
The names are added when you copy or send — nothing is saved or uploaded.
Dashain 2026 Dates & Tika Sait (2083 BS) — Know the Day Before You Send
Timing matters more than most people realise. A Vijaya Dashami blessing sent on Ghatasthapana morning reads as if you didn't know the calendar. Here is the 2083 schedule as announced by the Nepal Panchang Nirnayak Bikas Samiti, so you send the right message on the right day.
| Day | Date (AD) | Date (BS) | What to send |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ghatasthapana | Sunday, 11 Oct 2026 | Ashwin 25, 2083 | "दशैं सुरु भयो" — festival-opening wishes (sait: 11:47 AM) |
| Fulpati | Saturday, 17 Oct 2026 | Ashwin 31, 2083 | Short greetings; travel-safe wishes for people heading home |
| Maha Ashtami | Sunday, 18 Oct 2026 | Kartik 1, 2083 | Durga-focused blessings |
| Maha Navami | Tuesday, 20 Oct 2026 | Kartik 3, 2083 | Wishes for businesses, drivers and workshops — tools and vehicles are worshipped on Navami |
| Vijaya Dashami (Tika) | Wednesday, 21 Oct 2026 | Kartik 4, 2083 | The main day — tika & jamara blessings. Best tika sait: 10:26 AM |
| Kojagrat Purnima | Sunday, 25 Oct 2026 | Kartik 8, 2083 | Closing wishes; Lakshmi and prosperity blessings |
One detail almost every page gets wrong: Vijaya Dashami is not simply the tenth calendar day after Ghatasthapana. In 2083 one tithi stretches across two calendar days, so Tika lands on the eleventh calendar day — 21 October, not 20 October. That is also why there is no named festival day on Monday, 19 October (Kartik 2), which the government has made an additional Dashain holiday.
Tika sait 2083: the Samiti's notice of Ashwin 20 fixes the most auspicious moment for receiving tika at 10:26 AM on Kartik 4, after Devi Visarjan, with the person receiving tika facing west. The sait matters for those who follow it strictly; for everyone else, tika can be given and received throughout Vijaya Dashami and on the following days up to Kojagrat Purnima.
How to use this page: tap Copy on any message to put it on your clipboard, or tap WhatsApp / Viber / SMS / Email to open that app with the message already written. Open "Personalise every wish" in the search bar to add the recipient's name and your sign-off to whatever you copy. Use the search box to filter all 165+ wishes instantly — type "gurumaa", "client", "jamara" or any Nepali word.
Part 1 — Dashain Wishes Sorted by Platform
Each app has its own unwritten rules. WhatsApp rewards warmth and emoji. Viber is where the family group lives, so messages are addressed to everyone at once. SMS is hard-capped and every extra part costs money. Email needs a subject line and a sign-off. These sections are written to those constraints, not copy-pasted between them.
📗 Happy Dashain Wishes for WhatsApp (2026 / 2083)
WhatsApp is the default for one-to-one Dashain wishes in Nepal. The sweet spot is two lines — long enough to feel personal, short enough to read without tapping "Read more". Emoji are expected here.

💬 Dashain Messages for Facebook Messenger
Messenger skews younger and more casual — short bursts, informal तिमी, and a playful tone. These work as replies inside an existing chat rather than as a formal greeting. (Messenger has no way to pre-fill text, so the Messenger button copies the wish and opens Messenger for you to paste.)
दशैं आयो! 🎉 तिम्रो जीवनमा पनि खुसीको बहार आओस्। शुभ दशैं!

💜 Dashain Wishes for Viber Groups (Family & Community)
In Nepal, Viber is where the extended family group and the community group live. A Viber message is read by twenty people at once, so it should address the group collectively — never a single person — and stay respectful. The Viber button works on phones with Viber installed; on a computer, use Copy.

📱 Short Dashain SMS in Nepali (Under 70 Characters — One SMS)
This is the section competitors skip entirely. An SMS written in Devanagari uses Unicode encoding, which caps one message at 70 characters — not the 160 you get in English. Longer Nepali texts split into multiple billed parts of 67 characters each and may arrive out of order on older handsets. Every message below fits in one SMS, and each shows its live character count (adding a name may push it into a second part — the counter will tell you).
बडादशैंको हार्दिक मंगलमय शुभकामना!
शुभ विजयादशमी! टीका र जमराले भाग्य उज्यालो बनाओस्।
दशैंको शुभकामना! हरेक दिन शुभ, हरेक प्रयास सफल होस्।
दुर्गा माताको कृपा तपाईंको परिवारमा रहोस्। शुभ दशैं!
शुभ दशैं! हाँसोले घर भरियोस्, आशीर्वादले जीवन भरियोस्।
यो दशैंले नयाँ आशा र नयाँ सफलता ल्याओस्। शुभकामना!
टीकाको रातो, जमराको हरियो — जीवन यस्तै रंगीन होस्।
बडादशैं २०८३ को शुभकामना! स्वस्थ, सुखी र सफल रहनुहोस्।
शुभ विजयादशमी! सत्यको विजय सधैं साथमा रहोस्।
शुभ दशैं! परिवारसँगको हरेक पल अमूल्य बनोस्।
जेठाबडाको आशीर्वादले बाटो सधैं सहज होस्। शुभ दशैं!
Shubha Dashain 2083! Peace, health and prosperity to you.
SMS tip: if you need to send Dashain wishes to a long contact list, the Roman Nepali versions fit up to 160 characters in a single billed SMS instead of splitting into three. For a bulk send, that is a real cost difference. Avoid emoji and curly quotes in Roman SMS — a single emoji switches the whole message to Unicode and drops the limit back to 70.
✉️ Professional Dashain Email Templates (Subject Line + Body)
Email is the one channel where a copy-pasted WhatsApp blessing looks careless. These templates include a subject line, a proper salutation and a sign-off, and are written for a business inbox. Replace the bracketed fields before sending.
Subject: बडादशैं २०८३ को हार्दिक शुभकामना — [तपाईंको कम्पनीको नाम]
Subject: Happy Dashain 2083 — Office Holiday Schedule
Subject: विजयादशमीको हार्दिक शुभकामना
Subject: Warm wishes for Dashain, Nepal's biggest festival
Subject: शुभ दशैं! Wishing you tika, jamara and a great year ahead 🚩
Part 2 — Dashain Wishes Sorted by Relationship
Nepali is a language with built-in respect levels. Using the wrong one is the single most common mistake in a rushed Dashain message. As a rule: तपाईं (or हजुर) for anyone older than you, any teacher, any client and anyone senior at work; तिमी for friends, siblings and juniors you are close to; तँ only for very close childhood friends. Every section below is already written at the right level.
👨👩👧 Dashain Wishes for Family, Parents & Elders
Formal तपाईं throughout. These centre on receiving tika and blessings rather than giving them — which is the correct direction when you are the younger person.
बुवा–आमा, तपाईंहरूको हातको टीका र आशीर्वाद नै मेरो जीवनको सबैभन्दा ठूलो सम्पत्ति हो। शुभ दशैं! 🙏
तपाईंहरूको आशीर्वादले नै म यहाँसम्म आइपुगेँ। यो दशैंमा पनि उही माया र आशीर्वाद पाऊँ।
घरको टीका, आमाको भान्सा र बुवाको सल्लाह — दशैंको असली अर्थ यही हो। शुभ बडादशैं!
जेठाबडा सबैमा बडादशैंको हार्दिक मंगलमय शुभकामना। तपाईंहरूको स्वास्थ्य र दीर्घायुको कामना गर्दछु।
हजुरबुवा–हजुरआमा, हजुरहरूको आशीर्वादको छहारीमा हाम्रो परिवार सधैं सुरक्षित रहोस्। शुभ दशैं!

👫 Dashain Wishes for Brothers & Sisters (दाजुभाइ / दिदीबहिनी)
Warm and informal, with a bit of the teasing that actually happens between siblings at tika time. Elder siblings get तपाईं; younger ones get तिमी.
दाजु/दिदी, तपाईंको आशीर्वाद र साथ सधैं पाइरहूँ। शुभ दशैं! 🙏
भाइ/बहिनी, तिम्रो जीवनमा सफलता र खुसी सधैं रहोस्। शुभ बडादशैं! ❤️

टीका लगाउँदा पाएको आशीर्वादले तिम्रो हरेक सपना पूरा होस्। शुभ विजयादशमी!

🏢 Dashain Wishes for Office Colleagues
Professional but human. These avoid religious specificity where possible, which matters in a mixed workplace, and never assume the recipient is travelling home.

वर्षभरिको मेहनतपछि यो दशैंले तपाईंलाई पूर्ण विश्राम र खुसी दिओस्। शुभ विजयादशमी!

🎯 Dashain Wishes for Your Boss or Senior
Strictly तपाईं, no emoji beyond 🙏, no jokes. Short is better than effusive — an overlong message to a senior reads as trying too hard.

📚 Dashain Wishes for Teachers (गुरु / गुरुआमा)
In Nepali culture a teacher is अक्षरदाता — the giver of letters — and is addressed with the same respect as a parent. These are phrased as blessings received, not blessings given.
आदरणीय गुरुज्यू, तपाईंको ज्ञान र आशीर्वादले मेरो बाटो सधैं उज्यालो छ। शुभ दशैं! 🙏

✈️ Dashain Wishes for Nepalis Abroad (परदेशी दशैं)
Written for both directions — for those sending home from abroad, and for families sending to someone who couldn't make it back for tika. Tip: the 10:26 AM sait is Nepal time, so for someone in Doha or Sydney, send your wish a little before their morning, not yours.

Part 3 — Dashain Wishes for Each Day (Ghatasthapana to Kojagrat)

🔤 Dashain Wishes in Roman Nepali (For Phones Without Nepali Font)
A gap none of the big Dashain pages fill. Many second-generation Nepalis abroad speak Nepali fluently but cannot read Devanagari, and some older handsets and smartwatches render Nepali script as boxes. These Roman Nepali versions also fit a single 160-character SMS, which Devanagari does not.
Bada Dashain ko hardik mangalmaya shubhakamana! Tapai ra tapai ko pariwar ma sukha, shanti ra samriddhi chhaos.
Shubha Vijayadashami! Tika ra jamara le tapai ko bhagya ujyalo banaos.

🕊️ Messages for a Family in Mourning This Dashain
A family that has lost someone within the past year usually does not celebrate Dashain or receive tika. Sending them a cheerful "हार्दिक मंगलमय शुभकामना" is one of the most hurtful mistakes people make — usually by accident, from a broadcast list. For these families, skip the celebration words entirely and send something quiet instead. No emoji, no "happy".
यस वर्षको दशैंमा हामी तपाईं र तपाईंको परिवारलाई सम्झिरहेका छौँ। जे चाहिए पनि भन्नुहोला।
दशैंको यो समय तपाईंहरूका लागि सजिलो नहोला। हाम्रो माया र साथ सधैं तपाईंहरूसँग छ।
यो वर्ष चाड मनाउने अवस्था नभए पनि तपाईंहरूको मनमा शान्ति र धैर्य रहोस् भन्ने कामना गर्दछौँ।
Thinking of you and your family this Dashain. We are here if you need anything at all.

Dashain Wishing Etiquette: 8 Mistakes People Make Every Year
- Using तिमी with an elder. The fastest way to make a warm message land badly. Anyone older than you, any teacher and any client gets तपाईं. When unsure, default to तपाईं — over-formality is never taken as an insult.
- Sending the tika blessing before Tika day. "टीका र जमराले…" only makes sense from Vijaya Dashami onward. Before that, use the day-wise wishes or the festival-opening wishes.
- Blessing an elder. In Nepali custom blessings flow downward. A younger person receives आशीर्वाद; they don't grant it. Write "तपाईंको आशीर्वाद पाऊँ", not "म तपाईंलाई आशीर्वाद दिन्छु".
- Broadcasting to a client list with a visible recipient field. Use BCC or a proper mail tool. A Dashain email that exposes 300 customer addresses is a privacy incident, not a greeting.
- Assuming everyone celebrates. Nepal's workplaces are mixed. For a company-wide message, "Wishing everyone celebrating a joyful Dashain, and a restful break to all" is warmer than an assumption.
- Sending "happy" wishes to a family in mourning. Check your broadcast list for anyone who lost a family member this year, and send them a quiet message instead.
- Sending one 300-character Nepali SMS. It bills as five messages and often arrives scrambled. Use the short SMS section or the Roman Nepali versions.
- Forwarding a message that still carries someone else's name. Check the end of every forwarded wish before you hit send. It happens more than you'd think.
What I Learned Sending 400 Dashain Messages in One Morning
A few Dashains ago I decided to wish every client, every colleague and every extended-family contact personally instead of posting one status. By 11 a.m. on Tika day I had sent well over four hundred messages, and I learned three things the hard way.
First, the same message to everyone gets noticed — negatively. Two clients replied within minutes with the exact same forwarded blessing I had sent them — they had received it from someone else's broadcast too. Generic wishes are recycled so heavily in Nepal that people can spot them instantly. A message that names the person, or references something specific ("hope the drive to Pokhara was smooth"), gets a real reply. A forwarded one gets a thumbs-up at best. That is why every wish on this page now has a name field.
Second, the channel changes the message more than the recipient does. I had written one "professional" wish and reused it across email, Viber and SMS. On email it read fine. On Viber it looked cold and stiff next to everyone else's warm group messages. On SMS it split into three parts and the middle one arrived last. That experience is exactly why this page is built platform-first — it's the mistake that costs you the most and the one nobody warns you about.
Third, timing beats wording. Messages sent on Tika morning, before families sit down for the sait, got replies. The identical message sent at 4 p.m. mostly vanished into a backlog of a hundred unread chats. This year the sait is 10:26 AM, so send between roughly 8 and 10 a.m. on 21 October — earlier rather than longer.
Why This Dashain Wishes Collection Is Different
If you have searched "Dashain wishes in Nepali" before, you already know what the top results look like: a hundred numbered blessings in one column, no structure, and a copy button if you're lucky. Here is what is missing from them, and what this page does instead.
| What readers actually need | Typical Dashain wishes page | This page |
|---|---|---|
| Wishes sorted by the app you'll send from | One undivided list | 5 platform sections — WhatsApp, Messenger, Viber, SMS, Email, each with matching length and tone |
| Professional relationships | Family and friends only | Colleagues, boss, teachers, students, clients — with the correct respect level built in |
| Messages that don't look forwarded | Not possible | Name personalisation — add their name and your sign-off to any wish in one step |
| Ready-to-send email format | Not covered | 5 full templates with subject lines and sign-offs |
| Correct 2083 BS dates and sait | Usually missing or from a past year | Full 2083 schedule with the 10:26 AM tika sait and a live "today" banner |
| Wishes for each festival day | Tika day only | Day-wise wishes from Ghatasthapana to Kojagrat Purnima |
| Readable without Devanagari | Devanagari only | English and Roman Nepali sections for diaspora readers and older phones |
| SMS character reality | Ignored | Live character counter and a note on the 70-character Unicode SMS limit |
| Families who aren't celebrating | Ignored | Mourning-year messages that don't say "happy" |

| Cultural correctness | Assumed | Etiquette section covering तपाईं vs तिमी and the direction of blessings |
Make Your Dashain Wish Look as Good as It Reads
A message lands harder when it arrives with a card. If you're sending to clients or posting for a business, a branded Dashain graphic alongside the text is the difference between a greeting people scroll past and one they screenshot.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most common Happy Dashain wish in Nepali?
The most widely used line is "बडादशैंको हार्दिक मंगलमय शुभकामना" — roughly, "heartfelt and auspicious wishes on the occasion of Bada Dashain". It is appropriate for every relationship and every platform, which is exactly why it is so common. Pair it with one personal line, or the person's name, so it doesn't read as a forward.
When is Dashain Tika in 2026 (2083 BS), and what is the tika sait?
Vijaya Dashami — Tika day — falls on Wednesday, 21 October 2026, which is Kartik 4, 2083 BS. The Nepal Panchang Nirnayak Bikas Samiti has fixed the most auspicious time for receiving tika at 10:26 AM Nepal time, with the receiver facing west. Dashain begins with Ghatasthapana on 11 October 2026 (Ashwin 25, 2083) and ends with Kojagrat Purnima on 25 October 2026 (Kartik 8). Tika can still be received on any day up to Kojagrat Purnima.
Should I use तपाईं or तिमी in a Dashain message?
Use तपाईं for anyone older than you, any teacher, any client, and anyone senior at work. Use तिमी for close friends, younger siblings and juniors you know well. If you genuinely aren't sure, use तपाईं — excessive formality is never taken as rude in Nepali, while excessive familiarity can be.
How do I write a Dashain wish to a client without sounding like an advertisement?
Three rules. Lead with the greeting rather than your brand. Thank them for something specific rather than for "your valued business". And include no offer, discount code or call to action — a festival message that sells is read as a sales message with a festival attached. The client email template above follows all three.
Can I send these Dashain wishes as SMS?
Yes, but check the length. Nepali written in Devanagari uses Unicode encoding, which limits a single SMS to 70 characters rather than 160. The short SMS section on this page is written to stay within that, and each message shows its live character count. For bulk sends, the Roman Nepali versions fit up to 160 characters into one billed message — as long as they contain no emoji.
What is the difference between "Happy Dashain" and "Shubha Vijayadashami"?
"Happy Dashain" (शुभ दशैं) covers the whole fifteen-day festival and can be sent from Ghatasthapana onward. "Shubha Vijayadashami" (शुभ विजयादशमी) refers specifically to the tenth tithi — Tika day — so it is best used from 21 October 2026 onward. Sending Vijayadashami wishes in the first week is a small but noticeable mismatch.
What should I send to a family that is in mourning during Dashain?
Families who have lost someone in the past year usually do not celebrate Dashain or receive tika. Don't send them "happy" or "मंगलमय" wishes. A quiet message that says you are thinking of them and are there if they need anything is the respectful choice — see the mourning section above for ready-to-send examples.
Are these Dashain wishes free to copy and share?
Yes. Every message on this page is original and free to copy, forward and post on any platform. Tap the Copy button on any card, or use the direct send buttons to open WhatsApp, Viber, Messenger, SMS or email with the text already filled in.
How do I type Dashain wishes in Nepali on my own phone or laptop?
On Android and iOS, add the Nepali keyboard under Settings → Language & input (Android) or Settings → General → Keyboard (iPhone). On Windows, add the Nepali (Nepal) language pack. If you already type in Preeti or another legacy font, convert your text to Unicode before sending — Preeti text pasted into WhatsApp or SMS arrives as unreadable characters on the recipient's phone, since only Unicode renders reliably across devices. A free Preeti to Unicode converter does this in one step.
Send the Right Wish, to the Right Person, on the Right Day
Dashain is the one time of year when almost every Nepali is reachable and almost every message gets opened. That makes it worth thirty extra seconds: pick the section that matches your relationship, pick the platform you're actually sending from, add their name, tap Copy, and add one line that only you could have written.
Bookmark this page before 21 October 2026 — Tika morning, with the sait at 10:26 AM, is not when you want to be searching. And when the tika dries, Tihar is only two weeks behind.
