About vehicle pooja at Peddamma Temple
Goddess Peddamma is a much-loved village deity in Hyderabad, and devotees come to seek her protection for important moments in life, including buying a new vehicle. The vehicle pooja, often called a “new vehicle blessing,” is a short ceremony where the priest performs prayers and applies sacred markings to the car or bike. The idea behind it is simple: families want safe journeys and peace of mind before they start using the vehicle every day.
You will often see brand-new two-wheelers and four-wheelers, sometimes still carrying showroom decorations, parked near the temple in the mornings. Both cars and bikes are welcome. The ceremony is straightforward and does not usually take long.
Timings and indicative ticket
The temple is generally open daily in two sessions, roughly 6:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Vehicle pooja is usually carried out during the morning hours (around 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM) and again in the evening (around 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM). Mornings tend to be the most popular time for vehicle blessings.
As an indication, the vehicle pooja charge is reported to be about ₹50 for two-wheelers and ₹100 for four-wheelers, with the ticket purchased at the temple counter. Separate parking charges of roughly ₹10 for two-wheelers and ₹20 for four-wheelers may also apply. Timings and charges can change, so please confirm at the temple before you go.
