Hindu units of time
Vedic and texts describe units of Kala measurements, from Paramaṇu (about 17 microseconds) to Maha-Manvantara (311.04 trillion years). According to these texts, the creation and destruction of the universe is a cyclic process, which repeats itself forever. Each cycle starts with the birth and expansion (lifetime) of the universe equaling 311.04 trillion years, followed by its complete annihilation (which also prevails for the same duration). The current Universe was created in Padma kalpa, the last day Kalpa of 50th year of Brahma. This is 10.51 billion years ago. This figure is close to the modern estimated age of the universe in ≈ 13.79 billion years.
==Time units==
Various units of time are used across the Vedas, Puranas, Mahabharata, Suryasidhanta etc. Especially, Nimesha's multiple, it varies to 3, 10, 15, 18, 20, 27, 30, 45, 48, 60. At the lower end, these are pretty consistent. The Complete Hindu metrics of time ('' Vyavahāra'') can be summarised as below.
