Vehicle purchase Muhurat, March 2026

Meena Kharmas — 15 March to 14 April · 17 days of this month
No day qualifies
Every one of the 31 days fails on at least one limb or falls in a closed period, and nakshatra alone accounts for 9 of them. 3 days came within a single rule and are listed below — that is the set worth putting to a pandit. July 2026 and September 2026 are the widest of 2026 for this rite, level at 5 days each.
The days that carried the five movable (Chara) nakshatras
A vehicle is a thing that moves, so the Chara group is its own — Punarvasu, Swati, Shravana, Dhanishta and Shatabhisha, the widest of the seven classes.
| Day | Nakshatra | Tithi | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 Sun | Swati | Krishna Panchami | Vara: Sunday is not among the preferred weekdays |
| 15 Sun | Shravana | Krishna Ekadashi | Meena Kharmas |
| 16 Mon | Dhanishta | Krishna Dwadashi | Meena Kharmas |
| 17 Tue | Shatabhisha | Krishna Trayodashi | Meena Kharmas |
| 27 Fri | Punarvasu | Shukla Navami | Meena Kharmas |
One rule short — 3 days
They divide by the rule they missed: 2 on vara, 1 on nakshatra.
- 1 SunShukla Trayodashi, Pushya — short on vara: Sunday is not among the preferred weekdays
- 4 WedKrishna Pratipada, Purva Phalguni — short on nakshatra: Purva Phalguni is not in this occasion's set
- 8 SunKrishna Panchami, Swati — short on vara: Sunday is not among the preferred weekdays
Which rule did the excluding
17 days of March were shut by a closure and never examined. Of the 14 that were, none passed everything; 3 missed by a single rule and 11 by two or more, though one of this rite's 13 accepted nakshatras ran on 14 days of it. Nakshatra is the binding constraint here, ruling out 9 of the 14.
| Rule | What it asks for | Days it excluded | On its own |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tithi | anything but the 3 Rikta tithis and Amavasya | 3 | — |
| Vara | Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday | 6 | 2 |
| Nakshatra | 13 of the 27 | 9 | 1 |
| Yoga | none of the nine ashubha yogas | 6 | — |
| Karana | not Vishti (Bhadra) at sunrise | 3 | — |
Read the last column as a counterfactual. 2 days of March fail on vara and nothing else — 1, 8 — so a family willing to set aside that one rule has those days available. No other single relaxation buys as much.
Nakshatra supply. 13 of the 27 are accepted for this rite, and they fell on 14 days of March 2026, with Pushya coming round twice.
Weekday supply. March 2026 holds 17 days of the right weekday (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday), 8 of them outside a closure, and not one of those survive the rest of the filter — against 14 days supplied by the 13 nakshatras. Unlike the sky's four limbs, this is the one the calendar fixes.
A purchase is not a samskara, so Chaturmas is widely treated as open for it. Dhanteras and Akshaya Tritiya are used regardless of the panchang.
Every day of March 2026, and what ruled it out
All 31 days with the verdict and the reason, each linked to its own panchang page: 17 shut before being read, 14 examined against 13 nakshatras, 0 through.

March 2026 against the rest of 2026
The year holds 29 days for a vehicle purchase. This month's 0 ranks 11th of the twelve, level with 1 other month. July 2026 and September 2026 are the widest, level at 5 days each, and nothing at all in January, March.
The other six occasions in March 2026
Same 31 days, seven different filters: in March they return between 0 and 5 qualifying days, median 0. This rite’s 0 is the median itself, and the reason is the 13-nakshatra set and the 2 closures it carries.
Questions about March 2026
How many days in March 2026 are good for vehicle purchase?
None of the 31 days passes every filter. 3 days fails on a single limb and sits in no closed period, which is the set worth discussing with a pandit — they are listed above with the limb each one missed. July 2026 and September 2026 are the widest of 2026 for this occasion, level at 5 days each.
Is any part of March 2026 closed for auspicious beginnings?
Meena Kharmas, 15 March to 14 April. The Sun is in Pisces. Auspicious beginnings are deferred through the whole transit.
Why do other sites list more vehicle purchase dates in March 2026?
The closures alone take 17 of this month's 31 days — Meena Kharmas applies here — and a list assembled without them has 17 more days to draw on than this one does. Of the 14 that were examined, nakshatra removed 9.
Which nakshatras matter most for vehicle purchase?
The movable (Chara) and swift nakshatras, which suit a thing that travels, plus the soft ones. Within that set, the five movable (Chara) nakshatras is the group this occasion is built on, and March 2026 carries 5 days on which one of them falls: 8 March (Swati), 15 March (Shravana), 16 March (Dhanishta), 17 March (Shatabhisha), 27 March (Punarvasu).
