Akshaya Tritiya 2027 falls on **Saturday 8 May or Sunday 9 May**, depending on the panchang (checked 2026-10-20). Run your ads across both days, push gold and silver in the week before, and keep every claim you make checkable.

## The date

| Source | Date |
|---|---|
| [Drik Panchang](https://www.drikpanchang.com/festivals/akshaya-tritiya/akshaya-tritiya-date-time.html?year=2027) (New Delhi) | Sunday 9 May. The tithi runs from 11:42 am on 8 May to 9:03 am on 9 May |
| [Dekho Panchang](https://www.dekhopanchang.com/en/festivals/akshaya-tritiya/2027/pune) (Pune) | Saturday 8 May |

The 2026 date was Sunday 19 April, per Drik Panchang. The tithi spans two days, so panchangs pick different days. Do not print one date in a banner. Say "this Akshaya Tritiya weekend". India's [Mother's Day](/campaigns/mothers-day-ad-ideas) is also Sunday 9 May in 2027, so jewellers can offer gifts for her on the same weekend.

## Timing plan

| When | What to run |
|---|---|
| 19 April to 1 May | Build: collections, booking offers, "remind me" sign-ups |
| 2 to 7 May | Main push: offers on making charges, exchange, store-visit slots |
| 8 and 9 May | Store visits, same-day pickup, greetings |
| 10 May on | Thank-you offers; move to [wedding season](/campaigns/wedding-season-ad-ideas) |

This is the same rhythm as [Dhanteras](/campaigns/dhanteras-ad-ideas), held in spring.

## Angles

- **Auspicious start:** a new beginning, not only a purchase
- **Small and light:** coins, light jewellery and silver for lower budgets
- **Gift for her:** a gift from a child to a mother, if you want to use the Mother's Day overlap
- **Trust:** hallmark, buyback and exchange terms, and a clear price breakup
- **Convenience:** appointments, same-day pickup, EMI

Other buys also work, since many families treat the day as a good one for a new start: two-wheelers, cars, appliances and property bookings.

## Ideas by category

| Category | Idea |
|---|---|
| Jewellery | "Light gold for daily wear" cards with prices shown |
| Coins and bars | Weights and prices up front, with delivery or store pickup |
| Silver | Utensils, idols and gifts under INR 10,000 |
| Vehicles | Book now, deliver on the day |
| Finance | Small-amount gold options, with plain risk wording |

## Rules and trust

- **Digital gold.** SEBI issued a warning on 8 November 2025 (PR No. 70/2025, [Caution to public regarding dealing in "Digital Gold"](https://www.sebi.gov.in/media-and-notifications/press-releases/nov-2025/caution-to-public-regarding-dealing-in-digital-gold-_97676.html)). It says digital gold products are neither notified as securities nor regulated as commodity derivatives, and operate outside its purview. SEBI points investors to gold ETFs, exchange-traded commodity derivatives and Electronic Gold Receipts. If you advertise digital gold, never suggest SEBI regulation or protection.
- **Hallmark.** Only say "hallmarked" if every piece is. Ask your compliance team for the current BIS rules.
- **Price.** Gold prices move daily. Link to a live price page and avoid hard-coded numbers.

## Mistakes to avoid

- Naming one date in the creative
- Promising delivery for a date the courier cannot meet
- Targeting one gender without checking who actually buys from you
- Treating enquiries as sales. Measure [cost per acquisition](/glossary/cpa) per store visit or booking, not per click

If your ads send people to a showroom, route enquiries quickly. We make Marxx, which captures Meta lead ads as they arrive and routes the follow-up; see [lead capture](/features/leads).

## FAQ

### What is the date of Akshaya Tritiya in 2027?

Saturday 8 May or Sunday 9 May 2027, depending on the panchang. Drik Panchang (Delhi) gives 9 May and Dekho Panchang (Pune) gives 8 May.

### Is digital gold regulated by SEBI?

SEBI said in November 2025 that digital gold is not a security or a regulated commodity derivative and sits outside its purview.

### Should I run ads on the day itself?

Yes, for store visits and pickup. Online orders that must arrive in time should stop earlier.
