Rakshabandhan or Rakhi as we all know it, is celebrated on the last day of the Hindu lunar calendar month of Shraavana, which typically falls in August. In the year 2021, Rakhi will be celebrated on Monday August 3. The auspicious time to tie rakhi or perform the Thread Ceremony is between 09:28 to 21:14 hours. However, in these modern times the day matters for the occasion, time not so much. Most offices and businesses in India are open , however employees can choose to take a day off using their personal time off.
