Anant Chaturdashi: dates, muhurat and meaning.
The next Anant Chaturdashi is on Tuesday, 14 September 2027. The date is computed from the classical panchang for Delhi (rule: classical festival table — tithi prevailing at local noon). Below are the Anant Chaturdashi dates for 2026 and 2027, the day's shubh muhurat windows, and what the festival celebrates.
Anant Chaturdashi by year
What is Anant Chaturdashi?
The Anant vrata is ancient — the Mahabharata has Krishna teach it to Yudhishthira to restore lost fortune. The dora thread of fourteen knots carries the 'anant', the endless, through the year.
For Ganesh festivals it is the last immersion day, when the great pandals of Mumbai and Pune process to the sea through the night.
Muhurat on Anant Chaturdashi
The Anant puja and thread-tying are done in the morning. For visarjan, afternoon hours are customary; the Abhijit Muhurat above is the day's shubh anchor.
| Window | Time (IST) |
