FAQ
Questions about vehicle purchase muhurat
Why avoid Saturday for a new vehicle?
Saturday is Shani’s day, and starts associated with Shani are traditionally read as slow or hindered. This is not an absolute, Saturday with a favourable nakshatra can still be acceptable, so use the score, not just the weekday name.
Is picking an auspicious day alone enough?
The auspicious day is one part of it. Registration, insurance and safe driving matter just as much. This tool helps pick the day; it is not the whole vehicle-buying decision.
If booking and delivery fall on different days, which one should be auspicious?
Tradition treats the delivery day as the one that matters, when the vehicle actually comes into your name or possession. Booking is a formal step; focus the auspicious-day check on delivery.
Do the same rules apply to a second-hand vehicle?
Yes, the ownership-transfer day is treated as the new beginning, so the same nakshatra, weekday and tithi rules apply to a used vehicle too.
