Which Basant tools can you use?

Three: a kite size checker, a rooftop wall checker and a Basant budget planner.

Where do the numbers in these tools come from?

From our facts table: every limit, deadline and price is a sourced fact with a status and the day we last checked it, the same figures the rest of the site shows.

When a rule changes, we update the fact and every tool, guide and quick-answer box changes with it. Each tool page lists its sources at the bottom, and the Basant 2027 news page records what changed and when.

Are the results official?

No: the tools apply the official rules, but only an inspection by the authorities decides whether a kite or a rooftop passes.

Use them to check before you buy, build or book. Kite flying is allowed only on 12–14 March 2027, and only with legal kites and cotton dor from registered sellers.

Do the tools store what I enter?
