Muhurat Magic: Why Diwali 2023 Calls for Some Tradition-Fueled Investing

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Diwali is not just about dazzling lights and festive cheer; it’s also the time when Indians wholeheartedly embrace their inner wealth creators. Materialistic aspirations aren’t taboo during this celebration; in fact, they’re celebrated without a hint of greed. But amidst the shopping, pujas, and sweets, don’t forget about your investments. Diwali’s hidden gem is the Muhurat trading hour, a financial tradition that sparkles with auspicious opportunities. In this article, let’s explore why investing during Muhurat in 2023 is not only smart but also a lot of fun.

The Festive Finance Frenzy

While you’re busy decking the halls and lighting up the neighborhood, your investments shouldn’t be left in the dark. Muhurat trading is the hour where investors hit the buy button with a touch of Diwali magic. It’s the time when everyone pays their respects to Goddess Lakshmi, the wealth-bringer herself.

Understanding Muhurat Magic

Muhurat, in its Indian context, refers to that moment when the cosmos supposedly aligns in your favor. The Muhurat Investing hour is a unique window of one hour during Diwali when you can place your investments in the stock market. While most of the financial world is taking a breather, you have this exclusive hour to invest like it’s just another trading day.

It’s widely believed that investments made during this magical hour are sprinkled with extra stardust, ensuring a year of wealth and prosperity. Many investors buy equities during this time as a way to worship Goddess Lakshmi. This tradition is the stock market’s own secret recipe and investors across India can’t get enough of it.

From BSE to NSE: The Muhurat Trading Tale

The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), Asia’s original stock exchange, introduced the BSE Muhurat Trading tradition in 1957. The National Stock Exchange (NSE) joined the party in 1992. What began as a symbolic gesture is now a full-blown Diwali tradition. It’s like India’s way of telling the financial world, “We don’t just trade; we celebrate wealth creation.”

It’s Time to Celebrate with Your Portfolio

On Diwali, businesses and traders in India mark the beginning of their financial year according to the Vikram Samvat calendar. New accounts are opened, and Chopda Pujan – the financial ledger worship ceremony – takes place. Muhurat trading is all about celebrating and giving a nod to Goddess Lakshmi, the maven of wealth, fortune, and prosperity.
