Tirupati–Tirumala, April 8, 2026, 9:49 PM IST – For darshan on 9th April 2026, the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) issued the Slotted Sarva Darshan (SSD) and Divya Darshan / Sreevari Mettu (DD) token quota on 8th April 2026. Both quotas filled quickly, indicating stable‑to‑moderate demand in the current festival‑linked season.
-
Total SSD Tokens Released: 8,000 – These free time‑slotted Sarvadarshanam tokens were released for 9th April darshan and became fully booked by 6:34 AM at the Tirupati counters, as per same‑day token‑status‑tracking reports. SSD tokens allow devotees to enter Sarvadarshanam in fixed time slots, typically reducing traditional 12–24‑hour waits to about 3–6 hours, depending on the slot and day.
-
Total DD (Sreevari Mettu Margam) Tokens Released: 2,000 – These faster‑track tokens were also issued for 9th April darshan and got fully exhausted by 8:03 AM, showing continued preference for the Srivari Mettu footpath route among devotees. DD tokens give priority passage through the Sreevari Mettu pathway, shortening queue time significantly compared with the normal free‑queue.
This pattern suggests that 9th April 2026 will be a moderate‑demand darshan day, with devotees still using SSD and DD to avoid long waits during the ongoing Vasanthotsavam‑related high‑footfall window.
