Why are the new venture dates for Dubai different from an Indian calendar?

The Hindu day runs from local sunrise to local sunrise, so the tithi and nakshatram in force on a given date in Dubai are read at Dubai's sunrise — not Chennai's. On days where an element changes near dawn the two calendars simply land on different dates. Every date on this page is computed for Dubai specifically.

New venture / shop opening dates 2028 in Dubai

Q: How many new venture dates are there in 2028 for Dubai?

47 in 2028. Dates for opening a shop, office or business. The chara (movable) and kshipra (swift) nakshatras are preferred — the traditional reasoning is that a venture wants momentum, the opposite of the fixed nakshatras you want for a house.

Why these dates

Each date above passed every rule for a new venture in our published rule set — the nakshatram and tithi prevailing at sunrise in Dubai, the weekday, the Tamil month, and where it applies the planetary combustion (moudhyam) periods and eclipse days. The rahu kalam column is a caution rather than a filter: the date can be good and the hour still needs choosing.
