Griha Pravesh Puja in Shimla: Local Traditions
Shimla's temples sit on its ridges and hills, from the Jakhu Mandir of Hanuman above the Ridge to Tara Devi, Kali Bari and the Sankat Mochan Mandir.

Do you send Pandits to Sanjauli, Chhota Shimla, New Shimla and Lakkar Bazar?
Yes. Pandits come to homes across Shimla, including Sanjauli, Chhota Shimla, New Shimla, Lakkar Bazar, Kasumpti and Boileauganj, and nearby towns on request. Share your address and we confirm travel.
Will the Pandit bring the samagri for Griha Pravesh Puja?
Samagri is not included in the dakshina. The Pandit sends the Griha Pravesh Puja samagri list in advance; you can buy it yourself, or Pandit ji can arrange it in Shimla at an additional cost, agreed after discussion.

Many families, especially in North India, avoid Pitru Paksha, Kharmas, Adhik Maas and the Chaturmas period, and prefer months such as Magh, Phalgun, Vaishakh and Jyeshtha. Customs differ between regions and families, so the Pandit checks the panchang against your family's practice before suggesting a muhurat.
Can we do a havan for Griha Pravesh in an apartment?
Yes. Pandits use a small havan kund with dry samagri and ghee to keep smoke low, and choose a spot near a balcony or window. Check your society's rules and let the security team know about smoke detectors in advance.
