The ninefold Chandi — the Durga Saptashati recited nine times, honouring the nine forms of the Devi, closed with havan in the fuller packages.
Nine complete recitations of the Durga Saptashati with the prescribed angas, alongside the worship of the nine forms of the Devi.

The ninefold recitation kept as a full anushthan across the nine days, with daily puja, abhisheka and archana alongside.
The ninefold recitation completed with a full yajna — a sustained oblation sequence rather than a single closing havan.
The extended form: the ninefold Chandi with a maha yajna, daily abhisheka and archana, kept across the full nine days.
Navachandi is the Saptashati taken nine times, the count corresponding to the nine forms of the Devi worshipped through Navaratri. It is the counted Chandi observance most often kept by a household, sitting between a single path and the hundredfold Shatachandi. The recitation is accompanied by the worship of the nine forms and closed with a havan on the text, which in the larger packages becomes a full yajna.
Nine is not an arbitrary multiple here: it answers to the nine nights and the nine forms, so the observance carries the shape of Navaratri even when kept outside it. That correspondence is why Navachandi is the customary Navaratri observance for a family, and why it is usually performed with the nine forms worshipped alongside the recitation.
