Frequently asked questions

Should I time the booking or the delivery?

Tradition gives more weight to bringing the vehicle home or driving it for the first time, so take delivery inside the window.

Is the same date auspicious in every city?

Tithi and nakshatra are nearly the same across India, but sunrise, Rahu Kaal and the exact windows change with the city, so pick yours.

Can I buy a vehicle during Kharmas?

Kharmas rules out ceremonies such as weddings, but many families still make purchases. Kharmas days are kept here with a caution and a lower score.

How these dates are chosen

For each day, from sunrise to the next sunrise, the exact change times of tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and Moon sign come from NASA JPL DE440s ephemeris calculations with the Lahiri ayanamsa. They are matched to the purpose's rules, and Bhadra, Vyatipata, Vaidhriti, Rahu Kaal and Yamaganda are removed.

Whole days ruled out: Chaturmas, Kharmas, Guru or Shukra asta, Adhik Maas (by purpose)
Extra weight: Sarvartha Siddhi, Amrit Siddhi, Guru Pushya, Ravi Pushya, Abhijit Muhurat, Shukla Paksha
Personal (optional): Chandra bala and Tara bala; Lagna shuddhi and kundli matching are not included; have them checked by a priest.
