The process

How finding a rishta actually works here

No app, no login, no profile for you to build. One phone call starts it, and one person carries it through.

The process in one paragraph

You call, WhatsApp or visit Sharma Ji at the office in Palampur and describe what your family is looking for. He records the profile and the birth details himself and completes registration at a one-time ₹1,100. He then searches his own register and his network of families across the Kangra valley by hand. Before any proposal reaches you, the kundali is matched and the family background is checked. If you are interested, both families are introduced — contact details are shared only after both sides agree.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

Before you come

What to bring to the first sitting

None of this is compulsory on day one — but the more you bring, the sooner the search can start properly.
  • Exact date, time and place of birth (for the kundali)
  • Education and current work details
  • Family details — parents, siblings, native village or town
  • A recent photograph
  • Community and any preferences on community
  • A clear idea of what your family is looking for
  • Government photo ID, for verification

No birth time? Say so. Guna milan is based on the Moon’s nakshatra, which usually still works with an approximate time — Sharma Ji will tell you what can and cannot be read reliably.

What we do not do

Just as important

  • We do not publish any profile, photograph or phone number on this website or anywhere online.
  • We do not share your details with a family until you have said yes to that specific proposal.
  • We do not sell data, and we do not pass contacts to other agents or bureaus.
  • We do not take money on behalf of the other family, ever. If anyone asks you to, call us immediately.
  • We do not promise a timeline we cannot keep.

Questions

About the process

Do I need to create an online profile?

No. There is no login, no dashboard and no profile for you to build. You speak to Sharma Ji on the phone, on WhatsApp or at the office in Palampur, and he records everything himself. This is deliberate — most of the families we work with are parents who would rather talk than type.

How long does it usually take to find a match?

It depends entirely on the requirement — community, education, whether the family will settle in Himachal, and how flexible both sides are. Some families receive a first proposal within a few weeks; others take several months. Sharma Ji will give you an honest reading of how difficult your requirement is at the first sitting rather than a promise he cannot keep.

What documents or details should I bring for registration?

Bring the exact date, time and place of birth for the kundali, along with education and job details, a recent photograph, and a clear idea of what your family is looking for. Government ID is helpful for verification. If you do not have the birth time, tell Sharma Ji — there are ways to work around it.

Will my daughter's or son's photograph be put online?

Never. Photographs, phone numbers and birth details are kept in Sharma Ji's own register and shared only with a family that has been shortlisted, and only after you have agreed. Nothing is published on this website or sold to anyone.

Can families living outside Himachal Pradesh register?

Yes, and many do. Himachali families settled in Chandigarh, Delhi, Punjab and abroad often want a match from their own region and community. The entire process can be handled over phone and WhatsApp, with the family meeting arranged when you next visit.
