What we are
Not another matrimonial portal.
In one paragraph
Sharma Rishte is a personally verified matrimonial service based at Kallu Di Hatti, Bypass Chowk, Palampur, Himachal Pradesh. It is run by Pandit Sahil Sharma, a practising temple priest, who records every profile himself, performs the kundali milan, verifies family background through local contacts, and introduces two families only after both sides agree. Registration is a one-time ₹1,100, and no profile is ever published online.
Verified in person
No profile enters the register until Sharma Ji has spoken with the family himself.
Kundali read by a pandit
Guna milan and dosh analysis done by a practising temple priest, not a calculator.
Your details stay private
Photographs and phone numbers are never published online or sold to anyone.
One person, start to finish
The same voice on the phone from your first call to the wedding mandap.
The difference
What changes when a person does the matching
| Large matrimonial portals | Sharma Rishte | |
|---|---|---|
| Who creates the profile | The person themselves, unverified | Recorded by Sharma Ji after speaking to the family |
| Who suggests the match | An algorithm ranking paid profiles | A practising pandit who has met both sides |
| Kundali matching | Automated score, no interpretation | Read in person, dosh and dasha explained to you |
| Family background | Whatever the profile claims | Checked through local contacts, temples and neighbours |
| Who you talk to | A call centre, a new person each time | The same person, every single time |
| Contact details | Visible to anyone who pays | Shared only after both families agree |
| If something goes wrong | A support ticket | A phone number you already have |

How it works
Five steps, one phone number
- 01
Day 1
You call or visit
Speak to Sharma Ji directly on the phone, on WhatsApp, or at the office in Palampur. Tell him about your son or daughter in your own words — there is no form to wrestle with.
- 02
Day 1 – 2
Profile and kundali recorded
Education, work, family background, community, expectations, and the birth details for the kundali. Registration is completed at ₹1,100, and the profile enters the active search.
- 03
Ongoing
Sharma Ji searches personally
Every proposal is checked by hand against his own register and his network of families, temples and pandits across the Kangra valley. Nothing is auto-suggested.
- 04
Before introduction
Kundali milan before you meet
Ashtakoot Guna Milan, Manglik, Nadi and Bhakoot are read first. You are told the score and what it means in plain language — before anyone's time is spent.
- 05
When both sides agree
Families are introduced
Contact is shared only after both families say yes. Sharma Ji stays available through the meetings, and can perform the vivah sanskar itself if you wish.
Kundali milan
36 gunas, read by hand — and explained to you
- Ashtakoot Guna Milan across all eight kootas
- Manglik dosh position, severity and cancellations
- Nadi and Bhakoot dosh, with the exceptions checked properly
- Dasha periods of both charts, so timing is realistic
