Akshaya Tritiya 2025: Date, time, and significance

Akshaya Tritiya, also known as Akha Teej, will be observed on Wednesday, April 30, 2025. This festival is widely celebrated with prayers and the purchase of gold. According to Drik Panchang, the most auspicious time for performing puja is from 5:41 AM to 12:18 PM on April 30. The best time to buy gold, however, begins the evening before at 5:31 PM on April 29 and continues until 2:12 PM the next day.

Akshaya Tritiya is regarded as one of the most sacred days of the year in the Hindu calendar. Many believe that any positive action or investment made on this day brings lasting prosperity, and buying gold has become a key tradition to reflect wealth and security.

Why Akshaya Tritiya celebrated?

According to Hindu mythology, Lord Krishna once visited the Pandavas during their exile. Draupadi, feeling unprepared, asked for forgiveness. Krishna picked a single herb from their food bowl and, pleased with her devotion, gave the Pandavas the Akshaya Patra—a bowl that never ran out of food. Another story says Lord Kubera was appointed guardian of heaven’s wealth on this day after receiving blessings from Lord Shiva and Lord Brahma.

Akshaya Tritiya is considered significant for both spiritual and financial reasons. In Hindu and Jain traditions, it is a day that ensures lasting success when actions are taken with sincerity. The practice of buying gold is seen as a symbol of hope for continued growth and stability, both spiritually and materially.
