Bodhi- Tilka has made a remarkable study on this point. The different Maharatti sources give different dates for his birth. If I ever get some time I will try to write on that. Below is a cut and paste of Tilak's proposed 4 most likely dates:
1. Shaka 1549, Prabhava, Vaishakha Shudha 2, Saturday (7th April 1627)
2. Shaka 1549, Prabhava, Vaishakha Shudha 5, Tuesday (10th April 1627)
3. Shaka 1548, Kshaya, Vaishakha 2, Monday (17th April 1626)
4. Shaka 1548, Kshaya, Vaishakha Shudha 5, Thursday (20th April 1626)
The year prabhava and kShaya are in the 60 year Jupiter cycle (ShaShaThi samvatsara) that currently has gone out of phase between North and South India.
