  (52) The dynasties of Magadh after the Mahabharat war and the important historical personalities (Gautam Buddh, ...
The dynastic dates of the kings of Hastinapur are the actual historic records, but the dynasties of Magadh given in the Bhagwatam or Bhavishya Puran are the predictions by the descended Divine personality Ved Vyas who reproduced all the Vedas and Puranas before 3102 BC.
The dynastic periods of both, Hastinapur and Magadh, (up to Vikramaditya) coincide with only a difference of 24 years in 3,000 years of records which is almost negligible.
After the downfall of Gupt dynasty the kingship of Magadh ended and it went under the subordination of Vikramaditya of Ujjain (Malva).

 (40) Descriptions of the kings of Magadh in the Puranas were fabricated, historic records were destroyed, false ...
So it was fully possible to get the correct version of the names and the ruling period of the kings of the dynasties of Magadh by comparing all the available manuscripts of those Puranas which describe the dynasties of Magadh.
Thus, it is clear that these fabrications to distort the dynastic dates and the pronunciation of the names of the kings of Magadh were done in the early 19th century.
There were two kings in Magadh dynasties: Ashokvardhan, the grandson of Chandragupt Maurya, who was in the 15th century BC, and Samudragupt Ashokaditya (Priyadarshin), the son of Chandragupt of Gupt dynasty, who was in 4th century BC.

Patna: The bifurcation of Bihar is likely to put the Magadh Stock Exchange (MSE) here under severe financial strain as the new state of Jharkhand is expected to establish a separate bourse.
According to MSE sources, 11 of the 34 regional companies listed on the MSE may go to the new state when a regional exchange is created in Jharkhand.
However, MSE director Charanjit Singh said there was no immediate threat to the Magadh exchange because under the Bihar Reorganization Act 2000, all the companies in Jharkhand were to operate from the MSE till an office of the registrar of companies or stock exchange is opened in the new state.
