Kundli Matching FAQs
What is Kundli matching?
Kundli matching, also called Guna Milan or horoscope matching, is a Vedic astrology method that compares the birth charts of a boy and a girl before marriage. It scores 8 factors (Ashtakoot) out of a total of 36 gunas.
How many gunas should match for marriage?
Traditionally, 18 or more gunas out of 36 are considered acceptable for marriage. 25 to 32 is a good match and 33 to 36 is excellent. Below 18 is usually not recommended without a detailed reading by an astrologer.
Is 18 gunas a good match?
Yes, 18 gunas is the minimum score usually accepted for marriage. It is an average match, so families often also look at Nadi and Bhakoot points, and at education, values and family background.
Can I do Kundli matching without birth time?
You can get a basic result, but the score is most accurate with the exact date, time and place of birth. If the birth time is not known, use the closest time you have and confirm with an astrologer before deciding.
What is Nadi dosha?
Nadi dosha happens when the boy and girl have the same Nadi, which scores 0 out of 8 points. Many families take it seriously and consult an astrologer about it before going ahead.
Is this Kundli matching tool really free?
Yes. The Kundli matching tool on this page is free to use, with no sign-up needed to see your guna score.
Should we say no to a rishta if the guna score is low?
Not always. The guna score is one input. A low score is a reason to get a detailed reading and to look closely at compatibility, values and family understanding, not an automatic rejection.
How do I get matches that are also compatible in Kundli?
Register your profile with Shubamm Marriage Bureau, Ludhiana. Our matchmakers suggest verified profiles that fit your family, education and values, and you can check Kundli compatibility for any profile you like.

What Kundli Matching Tells You
Kundli matching, or guna milan, compares the birth charts of the boy and girl across eight areas called kootas, with a total of 36 gunas. Traditionally, a score of 18 or more is considered acceptable, and a higher score is seen as better compatibility. Many families also check for Manglik dosha and other doshas before a rishta moves ahead.
A kundli score is one part of the decision, not the whole decision. Education, values, family background and how the boy and girl feel after meeting matter just as much. That is why we use the kundli match as a first step, then help both families meet and talk. To learn more, read our detailed guide on kundli matching and guna milan.
Accurate Birth Details Matter
The result is only as good as the details you enter. Use the exact date, time and place of birth from the birth certificate or family records. If the time is not known, tell us and we will guide you. Once you have a good match, you can register your profile to receive verified matches from across Punjab and abroad.
