Akshaya Tritiya falls on Sunday, 19 April 2026. It's one of the most auspicious days of the year to buy gold and jewelry and to begin new ventures.

What's new this year

India has adopted IS 19469:2025, a BIS standard on diamond terminology. In short: "diamond" alone means natural, and lab-made stones should be described as "laboratory-grown diamond" or "laboratory-created diamond". Read our news story.

Smart buying checklist
