About Diwali
Diwali is celebrated on the Amavasya that prevails after sunset in Kartik (Ashwin in the amanta calendar). Lakshmi and Ganesh puja is done in the evening's Pradosh Kaal, best while the fixed sign Vrishabha (Taurus) is rising, so that wealth stays in the home.

FAQ
Diwali in Mississauga: questions, answered
The best time is Pradosh Kaal, the evening window after sunset, while the fixed sign Vrishabha (Taurus) is rising and Amavasya is running. In Delhi that is 5:54 pm to 7:50 pm. Times change with your city's sunset, so check your city in the table.
Diwali is kept on the evening Amavasya is running after local sunset. Canada is 8.5 to 13.5 hours behind India, so the date can differ in some years. This page works it out for Toronto, Brampton, Surrey, Vancouver and other Canadian cities on their own clocks.
Vrishabha (Taurus) is a fixed (sthir) sign. Worshipping Goddess Lakshmi while a fixed sign rises is believed to make her stay in the home, which is why the Lakshmi Puja muhurat is Pradosh Kaal overlapping the Vrishabha lagna.
Diwali is observed on the day its tithi is running in Pradosh Kaal, the evening window after sunset (a fifth of the night) at your location. Because sunrise and sunset differ from place to place, the date and time can differ between cities, and sometimes from a printed calendar made for another city.
Every muhurat is counted from your own city's sunrise and sunset, and the tithi changes at the same instant everywhere but at a different clock time in each time zone. That is why each city in India and Canada has its own date and time.
