Vehicle Puja Muhurtha 2026 in Surat

Tuesday is ruled by Mars (Mangal), the planet of accidents, aggression, and sharp events. As Vahana Puja is specifically about invoking protection for travel, starting on Mars's day is considered inauspicious. Most families also avoid Saturday (Saturn's day) for similar reasons.

The date of purchase and the date of Puja are separate. You can sign papers or pay on any day. Schedule the Vahana Puja — the actual blessing ceremony and first drive — on an auspicious day thereafter.

Yes, Vijayadasami (Dussehra) is one of the most popular days for Vahana Puja across India. It falls in the bright fortnight of Ashwina, after Navaratri, and is considered highly auspicious for new beginnings of all kinds, including blessing vehicles.

AstroShri uses the Swiss Ephemeris (highest precision planetary positions) with Lahiri Ayanamsha and BPHS muhurtha rules. All sunrise-dependent windows (Abhijit, Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda) are computed from Surat's exact coordinates (21.1702°N, 72.8311°E) rather than a national average. Personalised muhurtha also accounts for the individual's running Dasha period and Tara Bala.
