Due to capacity issues, if you are participating in the Chopda Pujan ceremony, please register here. This ceremony is free for all devotees.

This year’s Chopda Pujan is sponsored by Khodiyar Family.

Chopda Pujan, also known as Chopda Poojan, is a Hindu ritual mainly observed by business communities in India. It typically takes place during the festival of Diwali, particularly on the day of Dhanteras or the day of Lakshmi Puja. The primary purpose of Chopda Pujan is to worship the business's financial records and account books for prosperity in the coming year.

During this ceremony, the account books (chopda) are cleaned, and devotees perform puja (prayer rituals) to seek blessings for wealth, success, and good fortune. People often encourage the Goddess Lakshmi’s presence, which is considered the goddess of wealth, and give thanks for the past year’s blessings. It’s a time for reflection and gratitude, marking new beginnings in financial ventures.
