Below is the Indian Kalachakra (time-cycle):

60 years = Shashti Poorthi (For Reference : Shashti Poorthi)

4,32,000 years = Kali yuga (Age of vice) (For Reference : Kali Yuga)

8,64,000 years = Dwapar yuga (For Reference : Dvapara Yuga)

12,96,000 years = Treta Yuga (For Reference : Treta Yuga)

Total 43,20,000 years = 1 Maha yuga (Total 4 yugas. For Reference : Yuga)

71 Maha yugas = 1 Manvantara or Manuvantara or Manvanter (For Reference : Manvantara)

14 Manvantara = 1 Kalpa (For Reference : Kalpa (aeon))
