The window, the reason it is that window, and an honest answer about what we will not publish.
Gudi Padwa follows First day (Pratipada) of Shukla Paksha in Chaitra. The ritual window is set by the tithi and by the position of the moon relative to the lagna for your location — which is why the same festival has a slightly different puja window in Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai even though the civil date is the same.
Because of that, we do not publish city-by-city muhurat minutes. Getting a muhurat wrong is a genuinely harmful error — people plan their day, their travel and their leave around it — and we cannot verify every city against a reliable panchang. A number we cannot stand behind is worse than telling you where to look.
For the exact window in your city, check a location-specific panchang or your family’s usual almanac. What we can tell you reliably is the date, the day of the week, whether it is a multi-day observance, and where the date itself differs between regions — all of which is below.

Gudi Padwa 2026
Gudi Padwa falls on 19 March 2026, the first day of Chaitra Shukla Paksha.
A gudi is a bamboo stick wrapped in a bright silk cloth, decorated with neem and mango leaves and a flower garland, and topped with an upturned silver or copper pot. It is hoisted at a window or door on Gudi Padwa.
The prasad deliberately combines bitter neem with sweet jaggery and cumin. It is a reminder at the start of the year that it will contain both bitter and sweet experiences, and it is also considered good for health at the change of season.
They fall on the same day and both are new year celebrations, but the rituals differ. Gudi Padwa is the Marathi and Konkani observance with the gudi; Ugadi is the Kannada, Telugu and Konkani observance with the Ugadi pachadi and panchanga shravanam.
