What is Ashtakoot Guna Milan?
Ashtakoot compares the two Moon nakshatras across eight kootas: Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoot and Nadi. Their points add up to 36. Traditionally 18 or more is acceptable and 25 or more is good.

Ranks every saved Kundali against one person by Guna Milan (with Bhakoot/Nadi exceptions applied), the ten poruthams, Manglik and full compatibility.
Nadi, Bhakoot and Manglik dosha
Nadi and Bhakoot carry the most points, and a zero in either is called a dosha. Classical texts list cancellations, such as the Moon-sign lords being friends. Mangal dosha is checked from the Lagna, Moon and Venus for both people.

Frequently asked questions
How many gunas are needed for marriage?
18 out of 36 is the usual minimum in Ashtakoota milan; 24 or more is considered very good. Bhakoot and Nadi dosha matter more than the total, and both have classical exceptions that this tool checks.
What is Nadi dosha and can it be cancelled?
Nadi dosha means both have the same Nadi (Aadi, Madhya or Antya), which scores 0 out of 8. It is cancelled when both have the same rashi but different nakshatras, the same nakshatra but different rashis, or the same nakshatra in different padas.
Is Manglik matching checked too?
Yes. Mangal dosha is checked from the lagna, Moon and Venus for both, along with the common cancellations, and the result says whether it is present in one, both or neither.
