We list the best dates for bhumi poojan and house construction in 2021. Know which dates are auspicious for you and your family

In spite of the Coronavirus pandemic and the disruptions it brought along, more people are now willing to invest and start afresh, especially those who found their home-buying plans jeopardised due to income loss or uncertainty.

For the Chopras, who are in their 40s and based out of Bangalore, the plan to build their own home kept getting postponed over the last few years. “At first, it was health issues. Next came the death of a close family member, followed by the speculation of price correction and then, there was the COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdown,” says Arushi Chopra. She adds that in 2021, they are hoping and wishing for a new start and planning to construct their duplex house near Hennur. This time, the Chopras also plan to abide by Vastu Shastra principles.

“We took it very lightly all these years but after a string of bad news, our close friends suggested that we move into a new home and design the house as per Vastu Shastra. We thought, why not,” says Alankrit Chopra.

Many of you may be waiting for the right time to begin with the bhumi poojan and house construction. To simplify things for you, we list the best time to do so in the new year.

There are multiple opinions, when it comes to the shubh muhurats for house construction. The general consensus is that construction of a house should not start during Ashada Shukla to Kartik Shukla. It is believed that Lord Vishnu sleeps for four months from Ashadh Shukla Ekadashi and wakes up to Kartik Shukla Ekadashi. During these months, believers usually do not go in for marriages, house construction or even a new business.
