Dhanteras 2026 in short

In short

Dhanteras 2026 falls on Friday 6 November. Trayodashi runs from 10:30 AM IST on 6 November to 10:47 AM IST on 7 November, and anything bought in that span counts as a Dhanteras purchase. In New Delhi the most auspicious buying windows are Fri 6 Nov: 10:30 AM – 10:43 AM (Amrit), 12:05 PM – 1:27 PM (Shubh), 4:11 PM – 5:33 PM (Chal), 8:49 PM – 10:27 PM (Labh); Sat 7 Nov: 12:05 AM – 4:59 AM (Shubh, Amrit, Chal), 7:59 AM – 9:21 AM (Shubh). The Lakshmi–Kuber puja muhurat is 6:02 PM – 7:58 PM and Rahu Kaal, which many families avoid, is 10:43 AM – 12:05 PM. Ravi Pushya Nakshatra on Sunday 1 November is the other favourite gold-buying day.

What to buy on Dhanteras

Something new, ideally metal, brought home inside Trayodashi and placed before Lakshmi and Kuber in the evening.

  • Most popular

    Gold

    Coins, small jewellery or a gold-plated Lakshmi–Ganesh. A gram is enough; the act matters more than the weight.

  • Puja favourite

    Silver

    Silver coins stamped with Lakshmi and Ganesh are the classic Dhanteras purchase and go straight onto the puja thali.

  • For the kitchen

    Utensils

    Brass, copper or steel. Fill a new vessel with water, rice or sweets before you bring it home rather than carrying it in empty.

  • Tradition

    A new broom

    The jhadu stands for sweeping away poverty and is one of the cheapest and most widely kept Dhanteras customs.

  • Tradition

    Coriander seeds

    Whole dhaniya is offered in the puja, then sown in a pot or kept with your money.

  • Modern Dhanteras

    Business and home

    New account books, tools of your trade, appliances, electronics or a vehicle. Take delivery, or at least pay, within a buying window.

What families traditionally avoid

These are customs rather than rules, and they differ from family to family.

  • Popular belief

    Iron and sharp objects

    Knives, scissors and iron tools are traditionally left for another day.

  • Popular belief

    Glass and black items

    Glassware and black-coloured goods are avoided in many homes.

  • Popular belief

    Empty vessels

    If you buy a utensil, put something in it before it crosses your threshold.

  • Popular belief

    Oil

    Some families avoid buying oil on Dhanteras and stock up a day earlier.

Why Dhanteras is a buying day

Dhanteras, or Dhantrayodashi, opens the five days of Diwali on Kartik Krishna Trayodashi. Dhan is wealth and teras the thirteenth day. It is also Dhanvantari Trayodashi, remembering Dhanvantari, who rose from the churning of the ocean with the pot of amrit, and it is the day Lakshmi and Kuber are worshipped for prosperity.

Buying something new and metal is the heart of the day: a sign that wealth will come into the house through the year. The purchase is placed before Lakshmi and Kuber in the evening puja, and a single lamp is lit outside facing south, the Yama Deepam, for the protection of the family.

The tithi is what makes a purchase a Dhanteras purchase. Within it, families who follow a panchang prefer the auspicious choghadiya periods and avoid Rahu Kaal; that is what the finder above calculates.

Lakshmi and Ganesh: the silver coin bought on Dhanteras is placed before them at the Diwali puja.

Smart buying tips

  • Gold

    Check the hallmark

    In India, gold jewellery must carry the BIS hallmark and a six-digit HUID. Check the karat (22K is marked 916) and ask for a proper invoice.

  • Gold and silver

    Ask for the price breakdown

    Separate the metal price, making charges and tax, and ask about the buy-back or exchange policy before you pay.

  • Silver

    Silver purity

    Coins are usually 999 (fine) or 925 (sterling). The mark should be stamped on the coin or its pack.

  • Practical

    Book early, collect in the muhurat

    Shops are packed on Dhanteras. Order or reserve in advance, then pay or collect inside a buying window.

  • Practical

    Digital gold

    App-based digital gold is not regulated the way gold ETFs and mutual funds are, so read the storage and redemption terms.

  • Diaspora

    Abroad

    Buy from established jewellers, check the karat stamp (22K or 24K), and keep receipts for customs if you are taking it to India.

How the windows are calculated

  1. TrayodashiThe tithi runs from 10:30 AM IST on 6 November to 10:47 AM IST on 7 November, the same instant everywhere, converted to local time. Buying is counted from local sunrise on Dhanteras day.
  2. ChoghadiyaDay and night are each split into eight parts from local sunrise and sunset. Shubh, Labh, Amrit and Chal count as auspicious; Udveg, Rog and Kaal do not.
  3. Rahu KaalThe fourth eighth of Friday's daylight (and the third of Saturday's) is removed from the windows.
  4. Puja muhuratPradosh Kaal (the first fifth of the night) where Vrishabha lagna is rising, inside Trayodashi.
  5. Pushya NakshatraThe Moon's sidereal position (Lahiri) gives Pushya from about 5:39 AM IST on 1 November to 4:30 AM IST on 2 November.

Dhanteras 2026: questions people ask

When is Dhanteras in 2026?

Friday 6 November 2026. Trayodashi tithi begins at 10:30 AM IST on 6 November and ends at 10:47 AM IST on 7 November; Dhanteras is kept on the 6th because Trayodashi covers that evening's Pradosh Kaal.

What is the best time to buy gold on Dhanteras 2026?

In New Delhi: Fri 6 Nov: 10:30 AM – 10:43 AM (Amrit), 12:05 PM – 1:27 PM (Shubh), 4:11 PM – 5:33 PM (Chal), 8:49 PM – 10:27 PM (Labh); Sat 7 Nov: 12:05 AM – 4:59 AM (Shubh, Amrit, Chal), 7:59 AM – 9:21 AM (Shubh). These are the Shubh, Labh, Amrit and Chal choghadiya periods inside Trayodashi, with Rahu Kaal removed. Timings change by city, so pick yours in the finder.

Can I buy on the morning of 7 November?

In India, yes: Trayodashi continues until 10:47 AM IST on Saturday 7 November, and the Shubh choghadiya from about 7:59 AM to 9:21 AM in Delhi is a good window. In North America Trayodashi ends on the night of 6 November, so shop on Friday.

What is the Dhanteras puja muhurat in 2026?

The Lakshmi–Kuber (and Dhanvantari) puja is done in Pradosh Kaal with Vrishabha lagna. Drik Panchang gives 6:02 PM to 7:57 PM for New Delhi; Mumbai is 6:35 PM – 8:35 PM and London 4:42 PM – 6:20 PM, local time.

What should I buy on Dhanteras?

Gold or silver, often a coin with Lakshmi and Ganesh; brass, copper or steel utensils; a new broom; whole coriander seeds; and anything new for the home or business, such as account books, tools, appliances or a vehicle.

What should not be bought on Dhanteras?

By popular belief, iron and sharp objects such as knives and scissors, glass, black-coloured items and oil are avoided, and utensils are filled with water, grain or sweets before they are brought home rather than carried in empty. These are customs, and they vary between families.

Should I avoid Rahu Kaal while shopping?

Many families avoid starting a purchase in Rahu Kaal. On Friday 6 November it is 10:43 AM – 12:05 PM in New Delhi; the finder shows it for your city.

When is Yama Deepam in 2026?

On the evening of Dhanteras, Friday 6 November. A lamp is lit outside the home facing south, for Yama, early in the evening: about 5:33 PM – 6:51 PM in New Delhi.

Is Pushya Nakshatra good for buying gold?

Yes, many families buy gold on Pushya Nakshatra in the week before Diwali. In 2026 it falls on Sunday 1 November, making it Ravi Pushya, from about 5:39 AM on 1 November to 4:30 AM on 2 November IST.

Is Dhanteras on the same day in the USA, UK and Australia?

Yes, Friday 6 November everywhere on this page. In North America, Trayodashi ends that night (9:17 PM Pacific, 12:17 AM Eastern), so all buying windows fall on the Friday.
