When is Mahalakshmi worship as per the scriptures?
Diwali is the festival of night meditation. In this, Pradosh and Nishith Kaal are more important than Udaya Tithi. There are four holy nights, Kaalratri (Shivratri), Maharatri (Diwali), Moha-ratri (Janmashtami) and Darunratri (Holi-Dahan) which are celebrated at those times when the date falls on midnight. This time on 20th October the same coincidence is happening. Therefore, worshiping Mahalakshmi on the same day is as per scriptures and fruitful.
Amavasyayan tu Pradoshkale Deepdanam especially. Lakshmya Cha Vidhivad Pooja Dhandhaanyapradam Smritaam. That is, donating a lamp and worshiping Lakshmi during the Pradosh period of Amavasya brings wealth and happiness and prosperity.
The night of 20th October, Pradosh-Amavasya, Nishitha Kaal, Siddhi Yoga and Vrishabha Lagna are all scriptural indications that the main Diwali puja should be performed on this day. Social celebrations, home decoration and family puja will also be considered auspicious on 21st October.
