Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best day of the week to open a new shop?
Wednesday is associated with Mercury (Budh), the planet governing commerce. Thursday (Jupiter/Guru) governs expansion and prosperity. Both are excellent for business inauguration.
What is Amrit Choghadiya and why is it good for business?
Amrit (nectar) Choghadiya is the most auspicious daytime slot in Choghadiya. It is associated with success, gains and new beginnings — ideal for starting business activities.
Should the inauguration puja and first sale be on the same day?
Yes, ideally the puja, Ganesh worship and the first symbolic transaction should all happen within the muhurat window for best results.
Can an online business be started with a muhurat?
Yes. The muhurat applies to the first public launch or first transaction — the timing of the website going live or the first order can be aligned to the recommended auspicious slot.
