Our new flat in Pune is ready in December 2026 and we want to move in soon. Is there a good griha pravesh date before March?
For a new home, the text wants uttarayana and the month of Magha or later, so the strict dates begin in February 2027. Please share the owners' birth details and which way the main door faces. I will shortlist days and check the hour for Pune.
Short answer
A griha pravesh muhurat is the day and hour for first entering a new home. Muhurta Chintamani asks for uttarayana, the months Magha, Phalguna, Vaishakha or Jyeshtha, a gentle or fixed star, no Sunday or Tuesday and Jupiter and Venus visible. Sixteen days in 2027 pass at Delhi sunrise, none before February. On Kismo, verified astrologers check your house-entry date online from anywhere.

What does an astrologer check to fix a griha pravesh muhurat?
An astrologer checks a griha pravesh muhurat against chapter 13 of Muhurta Chintamani, then against the owners' charts. Kismo is an app where you talk to verified Vedic astrologers by chat or call, in 16 languages.
- Whether the house is new or old. Verse 13.2 relaxes the months, stars and combustion for an old or rebuilt house 1.
- Season and month. Verse 13.1 wants uttarayana and Jyeshtha, Magha, Phalguna or Vaishakha, with Jupiter and Venus visible 1.
- The star. Verse 13.1 names the mridu and dhruva stars, and those that suit the direction of the main door 1.
- Weekday and tithi. Verse 13.4 drops Sunday, Tuesday, rikta tithis and the new moon 1.
- The hour. Verses 13.1 and 13.4 want a fixed rising sign, the 4th and 8th houses empty and no movable sign 1.
- The owners. Verse 13.1 wants the rising sign in an upachaya place, 3rd, 6th, 10th or 11th, from the owner's birth sign 1. Without a birth chart, B. V. Raman falls back on the name star 5.
Which days in 2027 are good for griha pravesh?
Sixteen days pass every rule we checked for a new home, read at sunrise in New Delhi. Seven also fit B. V. Raman's narrower tithi list, and four fall in kharmas, which many families avoid by custom 2.
| Date | Weekday | Month and tithi | Nakshatra | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 11 Feb 2027 | Thursday | Magha, Shukla 5 | Revati | Raman's tithi |
| 25 Feb 2027 | Thursday | Magha, Krishna 5 | Chitra | - |
| 4 Mar 2027 | Thursday | Magha, Krishna 11 | Uttara Ashadha | - |
| 10 Mar 2027 | Wednesday | Phalguna, Shukla 2 | Uttara Bhadrapada | Raman's tithi |
| 11 Mar 2027 | Thursday | Phalguna, Shukla 3 | Revati | Raman's tithi |
| 15 Mar 2027 | Monday | Phalguna, Shukla 7 | Rohini | Raman's tithi |
| 22 Mar 2027 | Monday | Phalguna, Purnima | Uttara Phalguni | Kharmas |
| 24 Mar 2027 | Wednesday | Phalguna, Krishna 2 | Chitra | Kharmas |
| 27 Mar 2027 | Saturday | Phalguna, Krishna 5 | Anuradha | Kharmas |
| 1 Apr 2027 | Thursday | Phalguna, Krishna 10 | Uttara Ashadha | Kharmas |
| 8 May 2027 | Saturday | Vaishakha, Shukla 2 | Rohini | Raman's tithi |
| 21 May 2027 | Friday | Vaishakha, Krishna 1 | Anuradha | Raman's tithi |
| 5 Jun 2027 | Saturday | Jyeshtha, Shukla 1 | Rohini | - |
| 14 Jun 2027 | Monday | Jyeshtha, Shukla 11 | Chitra | Raman's tithi |
| 21 Jun 2027 | Monday | Jyeshtha, Krishna 2 | Uttara Ashadha | - |
| 2 Jul 2027 | Friday | Jyeshtha, Krishna 13 | Rohini | Ashadha by full-moon count |
Calculated from public astronomical data with the open-source astronomia library 3, Lahiri ayanamsa, months counted new moon to new moon (amanta). Checked: verses 13.1 and 13.4, combustion and adhik masa (1.47), vyatipata, vaidhriti and bhadra (1.34) 1. Not checked: the door's direction, the fixed rising sign, empty 4th and 8th houses and the owners' charts.
Which text gives the rules for griha pravesh?
Muhurta Chintamani gives the house-entry rules in chapter 13, the Griha Pravesha Prakarana, four verses long on timing 1. Its first verse splits entry into three kinds: a new house, a return from a journey, and an old house 1.
| Verse | Covers | Rule |
|---|---|---|
| 13.1 1 | New house | Uttarayana; Jyeshtha, Magha, Phalguna, Vaishakha; mridu or dhruva stars; fixed rising sign |
| 13.2 1 | Old or rebuilt house | Also Kartika, Margashirsha, Shravana; Shatabhisha, Pushya, Swati, Dhanishta; combustion not considered |
| 13.3 1 | Vastu puja | Done before entry under mridu, dhruva, kshipra or Mula stars |
| 13.4 1 | Day and hour | No Sunday, Tuesday, rikta tithi, new moon, Chaitra; 4th and 8th houses empty |
| Raman, pp. 133-137 2 | Modern summary | Same months; tithis bright 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11, 13 and dark 1; Saturday allowed by some |
The commentary calls Kartika and Margashirsha middling for a new house 1. Those months fall in dakshinayana, so a strict reading that also wants uttarayana leaves them out.
How rare is a good griha pravesh day?
A good day for a new home is rarer than a wedding day: 16 of 423 days, under 4%. Uttarayana alone removes more than half the year, and the four months remove most of the rest (calculated) 3.
Fifteen of our 16 days appear on Drik Panchang's 2027 griha pravesh list for New Delhi 4. The one missing, 2 July, falls in Jyeshtha by the new-moon month count but in Ashadha by the full-moon count used in North India, a month 13.4 sets aside 1.
Drik's list has 45 days because it also uses the middling months and does not ask for uttarayana 4. It lists 1 January 2027 and 13 days from 1 November to 22 December 2027 4.
If your family accepts the middling months, Kartika and Margashirsha 2026 give 10 more days under the same star, weekday and tithi rules (calculated) 3. Three of them fall in kharmas, from 19 December 2026.
Which months of the year allow a griha pravesh?
| Lunar month (2026-2027) | New house | Old or rented house |
|---|---|---|
| Kartika (10 Nov to 8 Dec 2026) | Middling, dakshinayana | Allowed 1 |
| Margashirsha (9 Dec 2026 to 7 Jan 2027) | Middling, dakshinayana | Allowed 1 |
| Pausha (8 Jan to 6 Feb 2027) | Not listed | Not listed |
| Magha (7 Feb to 8 Mar 2027) | Good 1 | Good |
| Phalguna (9 Mar to 6 Apr 2027) | Good 1 | Good |
| Chaitra (7 Apr to 6 May 2027) | Set aside by 13.4 1 | Set aside |
| Vaishakha (7 May to 4 Jun 2027) | Good 1 | Good |
| Jyeshtha (5 Jun to 4 Jul 2027) | Good 1 | Good |
| Ashadha to Ashvina (Jul to Oct 2027) | Not listed; Ashadha set aside | Shravana allowed 1 |
Month dates are new moon to new moon, calculated for Delhi 3. Families who count months from full moon shift each name by half a month.
Do I need a muhurat to move into a rented flat?
A rented flat counts as an old house in Muhurta Chintamani's terms, a house built by someone else 1. Verse 13.2 then allows more months and stars and does not ask about combust Jupiter or Venus 1.
Many families moving into a rented home simply avoid Sunday, Tuesday and the new moon, and choose one of the allowed stars. If a lease start date is fixed, an astrologer can pick the best hour on that day instead.
What do people get wrong about this?
Belief: We cannot sleep in the new flat or keep things there before the griha pravesh.
Muhurta Chintamani's verses time the formal first entry and the vastu puja; they say nothing about storing belongings earlier 1. This is family custom, and families differ.
Belief: Kharmas rules out every griha pravesh.
Chapter 13 names months, not kharmas; Phalguna 2027 has good days while the Sun is in Pisces 13. Many families still avoid kharmas, and an astrologer respects that.
Belief: Any day on a griha pravesh calendar suits every owner.
Verse 13.1 wants the rising sign in an upachaya place from the owner's own birth sign, which no shared calendar can check 1.

Questions people ask
Is there a good griha pravesh muhurat in November or December 2026?
No date in November or December 2026 passes the strict rules for a new house, because that stretch is dakshinayana 13. If your family accepts the middling months Kartika and Margashirsha, 10 days pass the other rules, the first on 11 November 2026 3. For an old or rented house those months are allowed outright 1.
Can griha pravesh be done on a Saturday or Sunday?
Sunday is set aside for griha pravesh, and Saturday is allowed. Muhurta Chintamani 13.4 drops Sunday and Tuesday only 1. B. V. Raman lists Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, and adds that some allow Saturday 2. Three of our 16 days in 2027 are Saturdays.
Can we do griha pravesh in kharmas?
Muhurta Chintamani does not name kharmas for griha pravesh; it names months and uttarayana 1. By that rule, four days in Phalguna 2027 pass while the Sun is in Pisces 3. Many North Indian families still avoid kharmas by custom, which leaves 12 of the 16 days. Follow your family's practice.
Can griha pravesh be done without a muhurat or a pandit?
Yes, families do enter homes without a fixed muhurat or a priest, and nothing in law requires either. Muhurta Chintamani's rule is for those who want an auspicious start 1. If you want one, a calendar gives the day and an astrologer can pick the hour; a simple puja at home is a family choice.
When is the right time to buy a house, as opposed to entering it?
Buying and entering are timed separately. The year to buy is read from your dasha and Jupiter's transit, covered on the right time to buy property. The griha pravesh day is a muhurat from the panchang, with the rules on this page 1.
How much will it cost to get a griha pravesh date checked on Kismo?
Checking a griha pravesh date on Kismo costs the astrologer's rate, from ₹15 a minute, with one rate for chat and call. You pay from a wallet, minimum top-up ₹100, per started minute. Your first session carries 5 free minutes with no card needed, and money you do not use stays in the wallet.
A priest says our griha pravesh needs a ₹51,000 vastu shanti package. Is that necessary?
No, Muhurta Chintamani names a vastu puja and a bali before entry but sets no price 1. Nobody can promise that a costly package protects a home. Choose any puja calmly, at a price you set, and get a second opinion before paying for any ritual. On Kismo, pressure to pay outside the app is misconduct.
Where can I ask an astrologer online for a griha pravesh date?
