The single most auspicious day in the Hindu calendar to buy gold. All 4 Londe Jewellers Gold & Diamonds Nagpur showrooms open at 11 AM, with extended festival hours confirmed closer to the date. 22K BIS hallmarked Lakshmi Ganesh coins, special muhurat windows, just 1% to 2% making charges on coins, instant valuation on old gold.
WhatsApp Community · Dhanteras Muhurat UpdatesThe word Dhanteras comes from Dhan (wealth) and Teras (the thirteenth day of the lunar fortnight). It celebrates Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Kuber, the divine treasurer. The Hindu belief is precise and powerful, anything bought on Dhanteras, especially gold, multiplies in value and prosperity throughout the coming year.
For Marathi and Vidarbha families, Dhanteras is more than a shopping day. It is the moment Lakshmi steps into the home for Diwali. An empty handed Dhanteras is considered inauspicious. Even a 2g gold coin or a silver Lakshmi token is considered enough to receive her blessing.
Showrooms open at 11 AM. Quieter through the day, so this is the easier window for leisurely puja shopping and unhurried family decisions.
The traditional Dhanteras evening muhurat. Most auspicious window for gold buy. Expect crowded showrooms, arrive early.
Specifically auspicious for fixed wealth, gold ornaments, coins, savings plans. Many Nagpur families schedule the formal Dhanteras puja in this window.
The evening muhurat is the busiest stretch of the year in every Nagpur showroom. If you want time at the counter, come earlier in the day and return for the puja. Festival hours are confirmed closer to the date.
Muhurat times listed are based on Nagpur (21.1429841°N, 79.0833354°E). Exact local timings will be displayed at each showroom 7 days before Dhanteras.
If you want your jewellery in hand on Dhanteras, you can book it now. Under the Advance Gold Rate Booking offer, valid 1 to 31 October 2026 at all four Londe Jewellers Gold & Diamonds showrooms, you pay 25% of the bill value as advance, and on billing day you pay the lower of your booking day rate and the billing day rate. Billing must be done by 31 October; the piece can be collected later, including on Dhanteras, Friday 6 November, or Diwali, Sunday 8 November.
The offer covers 22K, 18K and 9K gold jewellery, natural diamond jewellery and silver jewellery. It does not cover 24K or pure gold items, 22K gold coins or pure silver items, so Dhanteras coins are billed at the day's rate as usual. Made to order pieces take 15 to 20 days and qualify only if they arrive before 31 October, so an order placed now is unlikely to make it. Choose a ready piece in the store to be sure of the lower rate. T&C apply.
