Astrologers have identified the most auspicious periods on Dhanteras for buying jewellery, prompting shoppers to plan purchases throughout the day.
Dhanteras, the opening day of the Diwali festivities, is traditionally regarded as an auspicious occasion for purchasing gold, silver and other precious jewellery. This year, astrologers have highlighted specific windows during the day that are believed to bring prosperity and good fortune to buyers.
Retailers across major Indian cities are preparing for a surge in footfall, as shoppers aim to align their purchases with the recommended timings. Market analysts expect the day’s sales to outpace typical pre‑Diwali figures, given the heightened emphasis on timing.
Consumers are advised to consult the published Muhurat tables, which list the most favorable periods for jewellery transactions. By making purchases within these windows, buyers hope to maximize the auspicious benefits associated with Dhanteras.
The guidance has also prompted online platforms to feature timed flash sales, allowing customers to benefit from the same auspicious periods without visiting physical stores. This blend of tradition and digital convenience is set to shape the shopping landscape for the festival season.
