How many people in India speak Gujarati as their mother tongue?
Gujarati is the mother tongue of 5,54,92,554 people in India, about 5.5 crore, according to the Census of India 2011 1. That is 4.58% of the population, the sixth-largest share among India's languages 1.
Gujarati speakers grew by 20.40% between 2001 and 2011, faster than in the decade before 1. Their share of the population rose from 4.48% in 2001 to 4.58% in 2011 1.
| State or UT | Gujarati speakers (Census 2011) |
|---|---|
| Gujarat | 5,19,58,730 |
| Maharashtra | 23,71,743 |
| Tamil Nadu | 2,75,023 |
| Madhya Pradesh | 1,87,211 |
| Daman and Diu | 1,23,648 |
| Karnataka | 1,14,616 |
| Dadra and Nagar Haveli | 73,831 |
| Rajasthan | 67,490 |
Tamil Nadu appears on the list partly because the census groups Saurashtra or Saurashtri under Gujarati, with 2,47,702 speakers 1. Plain Gujarati was the mother tongue of 5,50,36,204 people 1.
What are the Gujarati words for janmakshar, panoti and kundli melap?
Gujarati has a few astrology words of its own, above all janmakshar for the birth chart and panoti for Saturn's difficult transits. The table lists them in Gujarati script with how they are said.
| Gujarati | Said as | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| જ્યોતિષી | jyotishi | An astrologer |
| જન્માક્ષર / જન્મ કુંડળી | janmakshar / janma kundli | The birth chart drawn from date, time and place of birth |
| કુંડળી મેળાપ | kundli melap | Matching two charts before marriage |
| મંગળ દોષ / માંગલિક | mangal dosh / manglik | Mars in certain houses of the chart |
| પનોતી | panoti | A Saturn transit read as a hard stretch |
| નાની પનોતી / મોટી પનોતી | nani panoti / moti panoti | The short and the long panoti: dhaiya and sade sati 7 |
| સાડાસાતી | sadasati | Saturn's seven-and-a-half-year transit around the Moon sign |
| કાલસર્પ યોગ / દોષ | kalsarp yog / dosh | All planets between Rahu and Ketu |
| પિતૃ દોષ | pitru dosh | A chart pattern linked to ancestors |
| નાડી દોષ | nadi dosh | Both partners in the same nadi |
| કમુરતા | kamurta | Weeks when weddings are put off 56 |
| લગ્ન મુહૂર્ત | lagna muhurat | A wedding date from the panchang |
| રાશિ પ્રમાણે નામ | rashi pramane naam | A baby's name chosen from the letters of the birth sign or nakshatra 8 |
Gujarati months end on the new moon, as in Maharashtra. Drik Panchang lists Gujarat among the amanta states, while Rajasthan next door is purnimanta 2. A Gujarati vad (dark-half) date can therefore carry a different month name from a Rajasthani one.
If your family writes birth dates by the Gujarati tithi, a Gujarati-speaking astrologer can read them as they are. On Kismo you can ask by chat or call, with each astrologer setting one rate, from ₹15 a minute.
When does the Gujarati year start, and which pauses does it carry?
The Gujarati year starts the day after Diwali, on Bestu Varas, by the Vikram Samvat. DeshGujarat marked the start of Vikram Samvat 2082 on 22 October 2025 3. The Calendar Reform Committee recorded a Kartikadi Samvat calendar whose year begins on Kartika Shukla 1 4.
Business follows the same calendar. Markets that close over Diwali reopen on Labh Pancham, the fifth day of the Gujarati year, which DeshGujarat calls an auspicious muhurat for restarting business 3.
Gujarati families keep two kamurta breaks in weddings, both tied to the Sun's sign. Dhanarak kamurta starts when the Sun enters Sagittarius in mid-December and ends at Makar Sankranti on 14 January 5. In December 2025 DeshGujarat reported it as a break of about a month and a half for Gujarati Hindu weddings 5.
The second break is Minarak, when the Sun is in Pisces. In 2025 it followed Holashtak, giving a pause on weddings from 6 March to 14 April 6. Chaitra Navratri still falls inside it 6.
Families abroad sometimes work around kamurta. DeshGujarat noted a surge of NRI weddings in the last fortnight of December, when families travel to India for the Christmas holidays 5. An astrologer can tell you which kamurta dates your panchang uses.
How do Gujarati families use astrology for Saturn, naming and marriage?
Saturn's transits are called panoti in Gujarati. The Free Press Journal explains the long panoti as sade sati, 7.5 years, and the short panoti as dhaiya, 2.5 years 7. Gujarati speakers call them moti and nani panoti.
Panoti is counted from the Moon sign. The long panoti starts when Saturn enters the sign before your Moon sign and ends when it leaves the sign after it 7. The short one runs while Saturn is in the 4th or 8th sign from the Moon 7.
Naming by letter is a common Gujarati custom, searched as rashi pramane naam. B. V. Raman's Muhurtha gives four syllables to each nakshatra, one for each quarter, and links a child's name to the birth star 8. In this table Rohini's syllables are O, Va, Vi and Vu, for example 8.
Kundli melap in Gujarat uses the eight kootas and 36 gunas of Muhurta Chintamani 9. The same text lists the months in which a wedding may be held by the Sun's sign, and Sagittarius and Pisces are not among them 9. That rule is the classical root of Dhanarak and Minarak kamurta.

Questions people ask
Can I talk to a Gujarati astrologer online in Gujarati?
Yes, many Vedic astrologers consult online in Gujarati, by chat or by phone call. You can type in Gujarati script, in Gujarati written with English letters, or in English. Ask about your janmakshar, a panoti or a wedding date without translating anything. Choose an astrologer who lists Gujarati among their languages before the session starts.
What is the difference between nani panoti and moti panoti?
Nani panoti is the short Saturn transit of about 2.5 years, also called dhaiya, and moti panoti is the long one of about 7.5 years, called sade sati. Both are counted from your Moon sign, not your Sun sign. Astrologers read them as stretches that ask for patience, not as fixed bad luck, and the rest of the chart changes how a panoti is read.
What is kamurta, and can we marry during kamurta?
Kamurta is the name Gujarati families give to the weeks when the Sun is in Sagittarius or Pisces, when most panchangs list no wedding muhurats. Dhanarak kamurta runs from mid-December to 14 January, and Minarak from mid-March to mid-April. Some families, often NRIs, do marry in December anyway. Ask an astrologer what your own panchang and family custom allow.
Which syllable should a Gujarati baby's name start with?
The name letter comes from the nakshatra and its quarter (pada) at birth, which sets one of four syllables. An astrologer works this out from the baby's date, exact time and place of birth. The rashi then follows from the nakshatra, which is why Gujarati families say rashi pramane naam. Many families pick a name starting with that syllable for the naming ceremony.
How much does a Gujarati astrologer charge on Kismo?
Each astrologer on Kismo sets one rate that covers both chat and call, starting at ₹15 a minute. Minutes are billed as they start, from a wallet with a minimum top-up of ₹100. You pay only for minutes used, and the rest stays in the wallet. Every astrologer's rate is shown on their profile before you start.
Is there a free Gujarati jyotish chat?
Yes, the first session on Kismo has 5 free minutes, and no card is needed. Spend them with a Gujarati-speaking astrologer on one clear question, such as which panoti is running now. Keep your birth details ready so the free time goes on the answer. After the free minutes, the astrologer's own rate applies.
How do I know an online Gujarati jyotishi is not cheating me?
An honest jyotishi explains what they read in your janmakshar and never promises a sure result. Be careful of fear about panoti or kalsarp, pressure to buy an expensive vidhi or stone, and requests to pay outside the app. Kismo screens every astrologer with a qualification review, a panel interview, live audits of sessions and a 30-day probation. Get a second opinion before paying for any ritual.
We live in the UK. Can a Gujarati astrologer do kundli melap from India?
Yes, a Gujarati astrologer can match two kundlis wherever the families live, because the session runs by chat or call. Give each birth time in the local time of the birthplace and name the town. For the wedding muhurat, say where the wedding will be held, since sunrise and tithi times change by place and kamurta dates follow the Sun.
