Dhanteras 2026 is on Friday, 6 November. It is one of the most auspicious days of the year to buy gold and silver, and for over four decades Udaipur families have marked it at Alankar Jewellers. This guide explains what to buy on Dhanteras, how to check gold purity, and where to find hallmarked gold and silver coins in Udaipur.

Dhanteras 2026: Date and Significance

Dhanteras falls on the thirteenth day of the dark fortnight of Kartik, two days before Diwali. In 2026 it is on Friday, 6 November, with Diwali on Sunday, 8 November. The day honours Lord Dhanvantari and Goddess Lakshmi, and buying gold, silver or new utensils is believed to bring prosperity to the home for the year ahead.

What to Buy on Dhanteras in Udaipur

Gold coins are the most popular Dhanteras purchase — BIS hallmarked 24kt and 22kt coins are easy to gift and simple to store. 22kt gold jewellery such as chains, bangles and earrings is a favourite for daily wear. See our gold jewellery in Udaipur.

Silver coins and pooja silver — Lakshmi-Ganesh coins, thalis, diyas and bowls — are a traditional and affordable choice. Explore our silver jewellery shop in Udaipur. Many families also choose wedding-season polki and kundan bridal sets on this day.

How to Check Gold Purity Before You Buy

Every gold piece should carry the BIS hallmark with its purity grade — 22K916 for 22kt gold or 18K750 for 18kt — and a six-digit HUID code. Ask for a bill that shows the weight, purity, the day’s gold rate and the making charges separately. Read our step-by-step guide to checking the BIS hallmark.
