Gujarati New Year celebrated on November 14 is an auspicious day for the Gujarati community across the world. Check out best wishes and messages inside.

Gujarati New Year, also known as Varsha Pratipada or Bestu Varas, is an auspicious day for the Gujarati community across the world. On Shukla Paksha, the Pratipada Tithi of Kartik, Gujaratis celebrate the beginning of a new year. It usually coincides with the festival of Govardhan Puja. This year, on Tuesday, November 14, the momentous occasion is marked with much enthusiasm and ceremony. With delicious treats, culinary creations, gatherings and greetings to loved ones, the day is celebrated to the fullest.

The Gujarati New Year is celebrated with festivities and the closing of old books and the opening of new ones. These books, called 'chopda pooja' by traditional Gujaratis, are worshipped to bring in a prosperous new year for business. During this pooja, Goddess Lakshmi is worshipped in the hope of bringing good fortune. Gujaratis also refer to their New Year's Day as Nutan Varsh.
