People often choose this day to begin new ventures, start a new job, get married, or buy gold, vehicles, and property.  They believe that whatever they do on this day will see limitless growth or success. Akshaya means ‘never decreasing,’ so whether it’s money or gold or possessions, it keeps growing and multiplying due to Lakshmi’s grace.
