The retrieved value of request_received depends on your current
timezone, and so does the result of date_trunc, that would be why it's
not immutable.
If you don't need that behavior, you can shift your timestamptz to a
fixed timezone, both in your index and in your queries, as in:
CREATE INDEX request_day_idx ON moksha_sm_request
(date_trunc('day', request_received at time zone 'Europe/Paris'));
