There is always a problem with "next" with days, months, etc. It could mean both. It partly depends on when it is said. For example: at Sep '13 it means Oct '14 at Nov '13 it means Oct '14 at Jan '14 it could Oct '14 or Oct '15.

yea .I have already asked him .Thank you

I agree with Matt, it really depends on the situation. We usually clarify/make sure. "You mean this coming October, right?"

Thank you all !But i would prefer he means this October !:)

As someone mentioned above, "next October" means October of next year; "this October" means October of this year.
