Kharmas 2024: According to the sacred Hindu texts, Kharmas also known as Malmas is considered an extremely inauspicious period for starting new ventures and undertaking significant endeavours. As per the Panchang, the Sun makes transit into either Sagittarius or Pisces zodiac signs during this inauspicious time. 

Therefore, it is advised to halt several activities, such as getting married, getting engaged, starting new businesses, celebrating house entering, building a new home, doing Upanayana Sanskar, mundan of a newborn kid, and buying a new vehicle. The Kharmas in March has begun from today, on 14th March 2024. Let us check out the relevant details further.

Kharmas 2024: Why Auspicious Activities Are Not Performed During Kharmas? 

The theory of not undertaking any major work during Kharmas is based on the notion that during Kharmas, the Sun enters the signs of Jupiter, concentrating on serving its Guru and reducing its power over earthly matters. This lessened impact is believed to result in adverse consequences for fortunate endeavours carried out at this time.
