When Navratri, Durga Puja & Ayudha Puja Falls
Nine nights from Ashwin Shukla Pratipada, ending on Vijayadashami.
The Gregorian date moves each year with the panchanga. Message us and we will confirm this year's date and the muhurat converted to your local time — before you commit to anything.
Why Families Abroad Book This One
Two very different bookings come from abroad in this window. Families ask for the full Kalash sthapana and nine-day sequence at their parents' home in Bangalore, and separately for Ayudha Puja at a shop, office or factory they own in India but cannot visit. Vidyarambham for a child on Vijayadashami is the third — parents abroad book it so the first letters are written under a pandit's guidance at the muhurat.
