A business muhurat is the day and window chosen to launch a venture or open a shop, so the first transaction happens under a favourable tithi, nakshatra, vara and yoga. Enter a date range and your city, and this finder scans each day, scores it from 0 to 100, and offers only that day's auspicious Choghadiya slots and its Abhijit Muhurta - with Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika Kaal excluded. Thirteen nakshatras count as favourable for commerce here.
In Vedic Muhurta, a good day to launch a venture or open a shop is one where the five limbs of the Panchang - tithi, vara (weekday), nakshatra, yoga and karana - favour wealth, movement and fresh beginnings. The Moon's strength and the absence of malefic combinations matter most.
The finder reads all five limbs for every day in your range and reports which of them helped and which cost points. A single strong factor rarely carries a day on its own; the dates that rank highest are the ones where the nakshatra, the tithi and the weekday agree with each other.
Once a strong date is fixed, the muhurta - a short window within the day - is picked from the day's Choghadiya. The Labh, Amrit and Shubh Choghadiya, and the Abhijit Muhurta around midday, are traditionally used for opening a shop or making the first transaction.
The windows themselves come from the day's Choghadiya, each an eighth of the daylight, plus Abhijit Muhurta, which is one fifteenth of it. Because both are proportions of the real day rather than fixed clock hours, their timings move with your city's sunrise and sunset and with the season.
Every window carries a number from 0 to 100 and a band: excellent from 72, good from 58, fair from 44, avoid below that. Beside the number the finder lists the individual factors that produced it and a Panchanga Shuddhi panel that grades the day's five angas separately, each with its own citation. Read those rather than the number alone - the composite weighting is this site's own editorial choice, since no source, Sanskrit or modern, ranks the five angas numerically against each other.
The one attested ordering is respected in the weights: B. V. Raman, Muhurtha ch. II, "by far the most important ones are tithi, nakshatra and vara", so no yoga or karana penalty is ever larger than the smallest tithi, nakshatra or vara penalty. What the finder does not do is reason about longer periods - Chaturmas, the two Kharmas and an Adhika month are month-level rules with no channel here, so days inside them can still be returned and remain yours to check.
Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are the finder's favourable weekdays - Wednesday for Mercury (trade), Thursday for Jupiter (growth) and Friday for Venus (wealth). The best single day still depends on the tithi, nakshatra and yoga falling on that date, which is what the scan compares for you.
Thirteen are in this finder's favourable set for business: Ashwini, Punarvasu, Pushya, Hasta, Chitra, Swati, Anuradha, Shravana, Dhanishta, Revati, Uttara Phalguni, Uttara Ashadha and Uttara Bhadrapada. Pushya is especially valued for prosperity and steady growth.
No. A general auspicious window can be found from the date range and city alone. Adding your birth nakshatra lets the finder also check Tara Bala and Chandra Bala, so the day suits you personally as well as being generally clear.
Labh, ruled by Mercury and named for gain, is the classic choice for commerce, with Amrit and Shubh close behind; Char is neutral and usable. The finder never offers Rog, Kaal or Udveg at all, and it drops any window overlapping Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika Kaal, so what you see is already filtered.
It bands as excellent from 72, good from 58, fair from 44 and avoid below 44. It is a composite this site computes, not a classical rule - no source ranks the five angas numerically. The weights do follow the one attested ordering, from B. V. Raman's Muhurtha ch. II, that tithi, nakshatra and vara outrank yoga and karana. Read the factor list and the Panchanga Shuddhi panel beside it, which carry citations.
