Akshaya Tritiya, also known as Akha Teej, is a very important Hindu festival linked with prosperity, good luck, and new beginnings. This year, it will be celebrated on Wednesday, April 30, 2025.

Why Akshaya Tritiya is Important?

The word “Akshaya” means eternal or never-ending, and “Tritiya” means the third day in the lunar calendar. It is believed that any good work or financial investment made on this day will bring lasting success. That’s why many people start new ventures or make big purchases, especially gold, on Akshaya Tritiya.

Buying gold on Akshaya Tritiya is a popular tradition. Gold symbolises wealth and purchasing it on this day is believed to bring prosperity. Across India, especially in the South, families rush to buy gold coins, jewellery, or even invest in digital gold. 

Today, many people also invest in gold through other options like digital gold, gold ETFs, etc. on Akshaya Tritiya.
