Varta

What is AstroSage Varta, and is it where astrologers register?

AstroSage Varta is the consultation side of AstroSage, where clients reach astrologers by call or chat, and it is where astrologers register ^1,2. AstroSage's astrologer terms name Varta.AstroSage.com as one of its platforms where astrologers and users meet ².

YourStory reported that Varta launched on the Play Store in August 2020 ⁴. The join page now also speaks of AstroSage AI, so you may see both names on the same form ¹.

AstroSage and Varta are owned and run by Ojas Softech Private Limited ². Its terms name Noida as the seat for any arbitration ².

The form

What does the AstroSage astrologer registration form ask for?

The AstroSage join-request form asks for your basic details, your experience and three sets of choices ¹. Fill it in this order.

Name and gender ¹.
Mobile number with country code; India, the USA, Nepal and many other countries are listed ¹.

Approval

How does AstroSage decide whether to approve an astrologer?

AstroSage approves astrologers at its own discretion: its terms say your registration is subject to its approval, and your profile is activated once accepted ². The listed reasons for rejection are an incomplete form, lack of experience, incompetence, or other reasons not spelled out ².

AstroSage does not publish an interview format or an approval time. Its terms warn that wrong or misleading details can get a profile rejected at any point, and set a Rs 11,000 penalty for misleading qualifications, photos or videos ².

Pay

How does AstroSage pay astrologers?

AstroSage pays astrologers a share of revenue at a rate it tells each astrologer separately, so the split is not public ². It pays within 10 days of the month after the revenue was earned, and says the first month's payment may be late because of documentation ².

Rule in AstroSage's terms	What it means for you
TDS is deducted from every payment ²	Tax comes off whatever the amount
Rs 999 a month for software maintenance ²	Deducted only in months when your share is above Rs 20,000
No pay for free or promotional minutes ²	Free calls AstroSage offers clients earn you nothing
Refunds are at AstroSage's discretion ²	If a client is refunded, that session is unpaid
AstroSage may change your rate ²	It can lower your agreed rate for offers without telling you first

Clients abroad may see a different price, but your fee stays on the domestic rate and is paid in rupees ². For how TDS works on this kind of income, see tax on online astrologer income.

What rules and fines apply to AstroSage astrologers?

AstroSage's astrologer terms set fixed fines for many breaches, most of them Rs 11,000, decided by its compliance team ². These are the ones a new astrologer is most likely to meet.

Leaving

Can you leave AstroSage whenever you want?

No, AstroSage's terms limit when and how you leave. The first three months are an Induction Phase in which you may not resign, and leaving during it carries a penalty of Rs 1,00,000 ².

After that you give 30 days' written notice, complete 90 login hours during it, and may not join another astrology platform until it ends ². Skipping the notice costs Rs 51,000, and breaking any part of the clause forfeits your whole earnings ².

No payment is made during the notice period until full and final settlement ². Even after you leave, the terms bar you from contacting any AstroSage customer ².

Panel app

What is the Varta Panel app for astrologers?

Varta Panel is AstroSage's Android app for approved astrologers to manage their account ³. Its listing says you can mark yourself active or inactive and update your call rate ³. It also shows the client's birth chart when a call arrives, and tracks calls and payments day by day ³.

On 5 November 2026 it had 3.9 stars from 1.47K reviews and 50,000+ downloads ³. Recent versions added AI-based performance monitoring and call distribution ³. Several astrologer reviews from 2025 and 2026 report missed chat and call alerts that lowered their pickup rating ³.

Compared

How does Kismo's agreement compare with AstroSage's terms?

Kismo and AstroSage both require exclusivity, so with either one you read on a single platform at a time.

Term	AstroSage	Kismo
Applying	Join-request form, then contact from a representative ¹	Browser application ending in one 10-minute chat reading, with no interview
Exclusivity	No similar service on any other online platform ²	No readings on any other astrology app, site or platform while live
Who sets your rate	You, within AstroSage's policy, and it may change it ²	You, Rs 20 to Rs 1,000 a minute, and changes apply at once
Your share	Agreed privately ²	30% to 55% of your rate, shown on every request
Name clients see	A display name AstroSage gives you ²	A display name you choose, which need not be your legal name
Free minutes	Not paid ²	With Increase Client Flow on, a new client's first 5 chat minutes are free and unpaid
Payout	Monthly, within 10 days of the next month ²	When you withdraw: Rs 2,000 minimum, every 14 days, via Grade

The exclusivity rules meet in one place. If you are live on AstroSage Varta now, you leave it before your new profile goes live, and AstroSage's terms bar joining another platform during its 30-day notice ².

So time your notice before you apply. Private clients off any platform stay allowed under the Kismo agreement; for the wider picture, read whether astrologers can join more than one app.
