Enter Both Birth Details
Guna Milan compares the Moon Nakshatra of both partners across eight kootas — Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoot and Nadi — for a maximum of 36 points, and checks for Mangal Dosha in each chart.
The Basics
What Is Kundli Matching?
Kundli Matching — also called Kundli Milan or horoscope matching — is the traditional Vedic method of comparing two birth charts before marriage. It isn't a verdict on whether two people can love each other; it's a read on how the relationship tends to function once the daily reality of marriage sets in.
The core of it is the Ashtakoot Guna Milan system: eight factors, drawn from where each partner's Moon sat at birth, scored out of 36 points combined. Alongside the score, a proper reading also checks for Mangal Dosha and weighs a few classical exceptions that can matter more than the number itself.

Reading Your Score
A score is a starting point, not a verdict — house strength, Dasha timing and classical exceptions can shift the real picture either way.

Want An Astrologer's Reading?
A score alone doesn't tell the whole story — Mangal Dosha and a few classical exceptions can outweigh a raw number either way, which is why an experienced astrologer's reading matters alongside the score. You can also check your own chart in detail first.
Frequently Asked Questions
18 out of 36 is usually considered the minimum acceptable score for marriage, while 24+ is considered excellent. Anything below 18 is traditionally advised against without further analysis.
Mangal Dosha in one or both charts doesn't automatically rule out a match — several classical exceptions can cancel it, and it's traditionally best assessed by an astrologer alongside the full chart.
Guna Milan itself is based mainly on the Moon's Nakshatra, so it's fairly tolerant of small timing errors — but an accurate time still matters for the Mangal Dosha check and any follow-up chart reading.
Yes. A lower Guna Milan score can still be offset by a strong 7th house, favourable Dashas and mutual emotional maturity — the 36-point system is one input, not the final word.
