About Dhanteras gold
When is Dhanteras in 2026?
Dhanteras 2026 is on Friday 6 November 2026, the Trayodashi of the dark fortnight of Kartik. One published panchang lists the tithi from about 10:30 AM on 6 November to about 10:47 AM on 7 November. Timings differ between panchangs and cities, so check your local panchang or pandit for the exact puja time.

The range for Dhanteras morning itself appears on this page from 10 AM on Thursday 5 November, and is locked at 10 PM that night. Nobody can name the rate to the rupee in advance, so PeekGold shows a range and never calls the price up or down.
Is Dhanteras a good day to buy gold?
Buying gold on Dhanteras is a long tradition in India and many people consider it auspicious. Whether it is a good time for your money is a different question, and this is not investment advice. Jewellers are busy and rates on the board can differ from the day's benchmark, so compare before you pay.
What should I check before buying gold on Dhanteras?
Look for the BIS hallmark and the 6 digit HUID on jewellery, ask for the rate per gram and the making charge in writing, remember 3% GST is added on the gold and the making charge, and keep the invoice. Coins and bars usually have lower making charges than jewellery.
Can I lock the gold rate before Dhanteras?
Some jewellers offer advance booking, where you pay part of the amount and fix the rate. Ask for the terms in writing, including what happens if the price falls and the date the booking ends.
