Dhanteras, the first day of Diwali festival season, has been an auspicious day for buying precious metals such as gold, silver and investing money. This year Dhanteras will be celebrated on Monday, 5 November 2018, a day before Naraka Chaturdashi (Choti Diwali). On Dhanteras there would be no bank holiday while banks will be closed on 6 to 8 November, subject to the regional timetable of the respective bank branches. As the fiesta is round the corner, many people have already planned what to buy on Dhanteras, where to invest on Dhanteras and some might have shortlisted a couple of investment options for Dhanteras.
