How to Use a Muhurat List Wisely

Step	Why it matters
Compare price with the buy range	Buying above it lowers the upside
Check the risk list	Each stock has its own risks
Spread across sectors	The list covers ten sectors
Match the horizon	Targets are for about a year
Size positions carefully	Targets can be missed

Even the HDFC Securities Muhurat picks can disappoint. Brokerage lists can disappoint. A Mint analysis in October 2025 found that about two-thirds of the Diwali picks it reviewed had fallen over the following period, with only about a third beating the Sensex. A list is a starting point for your own research, not a guarantee.

Conclusion

The HDFC Securities Muhurat picks offer ten ideas for Samvat 2083, with targets giving about 15% to 38% upside from 30 October prices. By 4 November several stocks had already moved above their buy ranges, so the real upside is smaller for those. Use the list with Muhurat trading 2026 as a watchlist and check valuations before acting.
