# Astrologers in Bengaluru: what a reading costs and what to ask

Three of the five Bengaluru astrology practices we read print no fee, and none prices what's sold after the reading. So we read the own websites of five Bengaluru astrology practices and one online astrologer, two calendar sites, a temple's seva page and a gem lab's price list, and the requests people sent us for an astrologer. Here's what a reading costs, what the fee covers, what remedies and stones cost after it, and how to get a second opinion. We don't say whether astrology works, and we predict nothing.

6 astrologers' sites read, 3 print a fee · Updated 23 Oct 2026, prices dated below

Every price here is the business's own published fee, read on 23 October 2026. Nobody we read prints a price for a remedy, a puja, a muhurtham or name letters, so the page gives none. Check every fee when you book.

## Q1. How much does an astrologer charge in Bengaluru?

**One Jayanagar astrologer prints ₹1,001 a sitting, a Nadi centre ₹2,500 to ₹15,050 by the reading, and one online astrologer ₹5,100 flat, with quick questions on the same reading at no extra charge.** Three of the five Bengaluru practices we read print no fee, so ask before you sit down. The matching score itself is free on kundli software.

- **Free kundli software:** Free. A birth chart and a matching score in a minute, with no one to explain it. One online astrologer's site also gives a free kundli, a report of about 90 pages and matching. ![An illustration of a laptop on a home desk showing a plain square birth chart and a row of score dots, a printed copy of the chart and a cup of filter coffee beside it](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/rs:fit:1200:0/f:webp/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/site/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru/step-free-e162c83fa9.png) Picture: Illustration, not a photograph of any astrologer.
- **The family priest and the panchanga:** No fixed fee. A muhurtham or name letters from the year's almanac, often given with a puja and paid in its dakshina. No priest or math we read prints a fee for it. ![An illustration of an elderly priest in a white dhoti, seen from behind, reading a thin almanac at a home pooja corner, with a brass lamp and a plate of betel, a banana and a coconut](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/rs:fit:1200:0/f:webp/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/site/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru/step-priest-dac5821c9e.png) Picture: Illustration, not a photograph of any astrologer.
- **One sitting with a Jayanagar astrologer:** ₹1,001. His printed fee for one consultation, in person at his centres or by phone. His page lists kundli matching among his services, but doesn't say how long a sitting runs or whether ₹1,001 covers both charts in a match, so ask. It says there's no pressure to buy anything. ![An illustration of a small consulting room: an astrologer in a white shirt, seen from behind, at a wooden desk with a hand-drawn square chart and a pen, two empty chairs across from him](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/rs:fit:1200:0/f:webp/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/site/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru/step-sitting-882084a61d.png) Picture: Illustration, not a photograph of any astrologer.
- **A Nadi centre that takes Bengaluru clients:** ₹2,500 to ₹15,050. Three readings: from ₹2,500, ₹3,050 and ₹15,050. In person, by audio or video, or a form with the reading emailed as audio. You get a copy of the details and a recording. Its page gives the three prices but not what separates them. It says to contact them about chapters and fees. Remedies, homam and yantram are separate services. It gives no Bengaluru street address. ![An illustration of a bundle of old palm-leaf manuscripts tied with string, one leaf laid open, a small audio recorder and a brass lamp on a cloth](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/rs:fit:1200:0/f:webp/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/site/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru/step-nadi-7d909dc6ac.png) Picture: Illustration, not a photograph of any astrologer.
- **An astrologer who works only online:** ₹5,100. A flat fee for one reading by phone, WhatsApp or video, in Hindi or English, with no per-minute charge. His page says to ask everything on the call. Quick questions on the same reading are answered at no extra charge. Remedies are suggested only where he sees a need, never compulsory. No written report is listed in the fee. ![An illustration of a laptop on a dining table showing a video call, a thick printed report and a notepad of questions beside it](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/rs:fit:1200:0/f:webp/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/site/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru/step-online-fd3254fb07.png) Picture: Illustration, not a photograph of any astrologer.

**Why one costs five times the other.** The ₹1,001 is one sitting, in person or by phone. The ₹5,100 is one reading on a call, with quick questions on it afterwards at no extra charge. Neither page says how long its sitting runs. Ask every astrologer how long the sitting is and what happens when you have a question next week.

**Three of five print nothing.** Three other Bengaluru practices we read give no fee on their sites. One says to call or WhatsApp for current charges, and one offers a free form to get started. Ask for the fee, and what it covers, before you give anyone your birth details.

**The score is free, the reading isn't.** Kundli software gives the chart and a matching score in a minute. What you pay an astrologer for is his reading of it. Ask which one you're paying for.

**Source of this answer:** each fee is that business's own published price, read on 23 October 2026. Their names are in the sources at the end.

- Pandit D S Joshi (panditdsjoshi.in): ₹1,001 a consultation, fee shared upfront, phone option, no product required. Session length, and whether it covers two charts for matching, not stated. Read 23 October 2026.
- Pramma Nadi centre (prammanadi.com): Agasthyar from ₹2,500, Shiva ₹3,050, Pramma ₹15,050, with nothing on what separates them; in person, audio, video or by form; a copy of the details and an audio recording. Branches listed in Tamil Nadu and Bihar, no Bengaluru address. Read 23 October 2026.
- Dr R P Sharma (drrpsharma.com/astrologer-fees.html): ₹5,100 flat, by phone, WhatsApp or video; quick clarifications on the same reading at no extra charge; no compulsory remedies; a free kundli, report and matching; his page says its refund policy applies. Read 23 October 2026.
- Pandit M B Joshi (mbjoshiastro.in) and Pandit D S Acharya Siddhanti (panditdsacharyasiddhanti.in): no fee printed. Jyotish Katti (jyotishkatti.com): fee not on its bookings page. Read 23 October 2026.
- Drik Panchang's chart tool: no price, a donation button. Uttaradi Matha's 2025 panchanga notice: print price not given.

## Q2. Should I see an astrologer in person, by phone or on video, and can I get a refund?

**Pick by language and by who from the family will be in the room: most astrologers here work in person, by phone and on video.** Ask for a fixed fee for the sitting, never per minute. One practice we read says no refunds and no cancellations, one says a refund policy applies, and the rest don't say, so ask before you pay. Ask for a recording at the start if you want one.

| Who | How | Refund and recordings |
|---|---|---|
| One Jayanagar astrologer | In person at his centres, or phone | Not stated on his page |
| One Bengaluru teacher-astrologer | In person for Bengaluru clients, or phone or Zoom. A 60-minute first sitting is what he recommends | No cancellations, no refunds, no free follow-ups. A week's notice to move a slot. Recording only on Zoom |
| A Nadi centre that takes Bengaluru clients | In person, audio, video, or a form with the reading emailed | You get an audio recording. Refunds not stated |
| One online astrologer | Phone, WhatsApp or video | His page says its refund policy applies |

**Ask for one price for the whole sitting.** Some phone and app consults bill by the minute, which adds up on a long call.

**From abroad,** ask what hours he takes calls in India time, and how you pay him. Four of the six practices we read take phone or WhatsApp.

**If you want it in writing, ask at the start.** Some give a PDF or a recording. Others say nothing about it.

**Source of this answer:** the practices' own booking and service pages, read on 23 October 2026.

- Jyotish Katti's bookings page: a 60-minute first consultation recommended; in person only for Bengaluru clients, otherwise phone or Zoom; recording only on Zoom; no cancellations, no refunds, no free follow-ups; a slot moves only with a week's notice.
- Pramma Nadi centre: in person, audio or video, or a form with the reading emailed as audio; a copy of the details and an audio recording.
- Phone or WhatsApp: Pandit D S Joshi, Pandit M B Joshi, Pandit D S Acharya Siddhanti and Dr R P Sharma.
- Dr R P Sharma: phone, WhatsApp or video, no per-minute charge; his page says its refund policy applies.
- Per-minute billing: Dr R P Sharma's page sets his flat fee against it. We used no app as a source.

## Q3. Can a kundli be made without the exact birth time?

**Yes, but tell the astrologer before he starts, because a wrong time can change the birth star.** Look for the time first: a hospital discharge summary or the birth certificate may have it. If nobody has it, some astrologers read from the moment you ask the question (Prashna).

**Look for the time on paper first.** A discharge summary from the hospital, the birth certificate or an old family horoscope may have it. A guess from memory may put the person in a different star.

**It's common not to have it.** One person who asked us for a pooja in August had no horoscope at all and only the date on his school record.

**Don't give a time that "works".** It moves the question, it doesn't answer it. Tell the astrologer what you know and how sure you are, and ask how he'll read it. One Bengaluru practice lists Prashna among its services.

**Source of this answer:** a request sent to mytribe, one practice's list of services, and how astrologers usually work.

- A Bengaluru request to mytribe, 27 August 2026: no horoscope, no birth time, the date from a school record.
- Pandit M B Joshi's site lists Prashna. Read 23 October 2026.
- Hospital papers and certificates as a place to find the time: how families usually find it. No source we read covers it.

## Q4. How many gunas should match for marriage?

**18 out of 36 is the number most often given as the least for marriage, but the score alone rarely settles it.** Drik Panchang calls 17 to 20 middling when the Bhakuta part is favourable, and says a 28 with a bad Nadi score is considered inauspicious. Tamil and Kerala families check poruthams instead. Astrologers and families differ on all of this.

| Score out of 36 | What Drik Panchang calls it, when Bhakuta is favourable |
|---|---|
| 0 to 16 | Inauspicious |
| 17 to 20 | Middling |
| 28, with a bad Nadi score | Considered inauspicious |

**The 36 is the North Indian count.** It adds up eight parts, called kootas. DekhoPanchang calls 18 and over the minimum for marriage. Drik Panchang gives no single minimum. Its bands shift when the Bhakuta part is unfavourable: then 0 to 20 is inauspicious and 21 to 25 middling.

**Tamil and Kerala families count differently.** They check about ten poruthams, each a pass or a fail, rajju among them, and some families treat rajju as one that can't be failed. So the same couple can pass one system and fail the other.

**Manglik isn't in the 36.** Drik Panchang says the score leaves out Mangal dosha, which astrologers check on its own.

**If one side insists on matching,** it helps to agree on one astrologer both sides trust before anyone reads the charts. Whether to go ahead is the family's call. We don't say whether matching works.

**Source of this answer:** two calendar sites' matching pages, read on 23 October 2026, and how the South Indian system is usually described.

- Drik Panchang's horoscope match page: a maximum of 36. With Bhakuta favourable, 0 to 16 inauspicious, 17 to 20 middling, 21 to 30 very good, 31 to 36 excellent. With Bhakuta unfavourable, 0 to 20 inauspicious, 21 to 25 middling, 26 to 29 very good, never excellent. An unfavourable Nadi koota makes a match with 28 inauspicious. Mangal dosha isn't counted in the 36.
- DekhoPanchang's guide to gun milan: 18 and over the minimum for marriage; under 18 generally called a mismatch.
- Poruthams: DekhoPanchang describes about ten in the South Indian system, rajju among them. That some families treat rajju as a must is how the system is commonly described; astrologers differ on which ones must pass.

## Q5. The kundli isn't matching or shows a dosha. How do I get a second opinion?

**Go to an astrologer who tells you the fee before the sitting and doesn't sell the remedy himself. Give him the same birth details and nothing else.** Check the score on free software first, then ask him which system he used and whether anything in the charts cancels the dosha.

**Tell him nothing else first.** Leave out the job, the caste and what the first astrologer said. Anything he hears before he reads your chart can change what he says.

**Walk away from fear and hurry.** If he says it must be fixed this week, or that only his own puja will do, get a third view before you pay.

**A good full reading can take days.** Ask how long he needs and whether he casts the chart himself.

**What did the astrologer mean?**

- **Guna:** **A point in the North Indian matching score, out of 36.** Eight parts of the two charts are compared and added up (question 4). Ask which parts scored low, and whether he counts Nadi on its own.
- **Porutham:** **One check in the Tamil and Kerala way of matching.** There are about ten, each a pass or a fail. Ask which poruthams failed, and whether your family treats any as a must.
- **Rajju:** **One porutham that some families treat as one that can't fail.** It's read from the two birth stars. Ask whether he sees any exception to it in these two charts.
- **Nadi dosha:** **A zero on Nadi, one of the eight parts of the 36-point count.** Drik Panchang gives Nadi first priority. Ask whether anything in the two charts cancels it, by his reading.
- **Manglik or kuja dosha:** **Mars in certain places in the chart, by the astrologer's reading.** It's checked apart from the 36-point score. Ask if it's in both charts, and whether it's cancelled by anything else.
- **Cancelled dosha:** **A dosha that another part of the chart undoes, by the rules astrologers use.** One astrologer may see it as cancelled where another doesn't. Ask him to name the rule he used, so you can ask the next one about it.
- **Parihara:** **A remedy: a puja, a homam, a temple visit, a yantra or a stone.** Nobody we read prints a price for one (question 6). Ask whether he sells it himself, and for an itemised quote.
- **Prashna:** **A reading cast for the moment you ask the question.** Some astrologers use it when the birth time isn't known (question 3). Ask whether he'll use it, or a time from your papers.
- **Muhurtham:** **A good window of time for a ceremony.** The family priest usually picks it from the panchanga (question 8). Ask if the time is for starting the ceremony or for its key moment.

What the words mean in the tradition, from the matching pages and practices we read. We don't say whether they hold.

[Ask us what the astrologer means (WhatsApp +91 63600 04054)](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi!%20I'm%20in%20Bengaluru%2C%20and%20an%20astrologer%20used%20a%20word%20I'm%20not%20sure%20about.%0AThe%20word%3A%20)

**Source of this answer:** the practices' own pages and two calendar sites, read on 23 October 2026, and what people searching this tend to ask.

- Pandit D S Joshi: the fee shared before the sitting. Dr R P Sharma: remedies never a compulsory purchase.
- Drik Panchang: Nadi koota given supreme priority; Mangal dosha not counted in the 36.
- DekhoPanchang: one rule astrologers use to cancel Nadi dosha (the same star but different signs, or the reverse).
- Telling him nothing else, and the days a full reading can take: how a second reading is usually done. No source we read covers it.

## Q6. How much does a dosha remedy puja cost, and do I have to buy it from the astrologer?

**Nobody we read prints a price for a remedy, a homam, a yantra or a puja, so get an itemised quote before you agree to anything.** Two astrologers' own pages say a remedy is never a compulsory purchase. Your own priest can usually do the same puja, or you can book a seva at the temple yourself.

**The sitting is the small part.** Every remedy we found on an astrologer's page is listed by name only: homam, yantra, dosha parihara and more. Our advice: a puja bought through an astrologer usually has the priest, the samagri and his time in one number, so ask for each line.

**You don't have to buy it from him.** Our advice: ask your own family priest whether he can do the same puja at his own rate. Or book the seva at the temple. One person who asked us in August wanted a Shatru Samhara pooja for under ₹5,000.

**At Kukke Subramanya,** Sarpa Samskara, Naga Prathishte and Ashlesha Bali are the temple's own sevas, on its page on the state endowment department's site. We couldn't read a fee there, so check it with the temple before you go, and book directly with the temple, without going through a middleman.

**Source of this answer:** the astrologers' own pages and the temple's own page, read on 23 October 2026. None prints a remedy price.

- Pandit D S Joshi and Dr R P Sharma: no product or remedy required. Pandit M B Joshi and Pandit D S Acharya Siddhanti: remedies listed by name, no price. Pramma Nadi centre: homam, yantram and remedies listed, no price.
- Kukke Subrahmanya temple's page on the Karnataka Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments site (itms.kar.nic.in): the sevas named, no fee shown.
- A Bengaluru request to mytribe, 27 August 2026: a Shatru Samhara pooja, under ₹5,000 if possible.
- Bundling and your own priest: our advice from how pujas are usually bought. No source we read covers it.

## Q7. An astrologer told me to wear a blue sapphire. How do I check it's real?

**Buy only with a lab report, and look the report number up on the lab's own site.** The report says if the stone is natural and if it's treated, such as a heated sapphire or a glass-filled ruby. One international lab charges ₹7,110 to test a stone under 2 carats.

![An illustration of a loose blue sapphire lying on a gem lab report card with a photo box and a report number field, a jeweller's loupe and tweezers beside it](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/rs:fit:1200:0/f:webp/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/site/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru/lab-report-f116a1feb8.png) What the ₹7,110 buys: a lab's report on one stone, saying what it is and whether it's treated. Not the stone's price. Picture: Illustration, not any lab's real report.

**Some sellers print their own certificate, so check it came from a lab.** Ask which lab tested the stone, then look the number up on that lab's site. The lab we read prices a report on a sapphire, ruby or emerald under 2 carats at ₹7,110, from 1 October 2026.

**Ask in writing whether it's treated.** Sellers treat stones, by heating or glass filling, and a lab report names it. Whether a treated stone suits you is your astrologer's call.

**Ask how he chose the weight.** Stones are priced by the carat or the ratti, so a heavier stone costs a lot more.

**Ask about returns before you pay.** Some astrologers ask you to wear a blue sapphire on trial first. Ask the seller whether he takes it back if you're told to stop, and what he keeps.

**Rudraksha too.** Our advice: ask the seller for a lab test report, and which lab did it. The gem lab fee above is for coloured stones, and we found no published fee for testing a bead.

**Source of this answer:** GIA's published fee list for India, effective 1 October 2026. No gem shop's own stone price was read, so no stone price is given.

- GIA Colored Stone Services fee schedule (Indian rupee), effective 1 October 2026: Colored Stone Identification Report, loose or mounted, 0.01 to 1.99 ct, ₹7,110 for stones including ruby, sapphire and emerald. The report says whether the stone is natural or laboratory-grown and any detectable treatments.
- Looking a report number up: our advice. We didn't open any lab's report-check page for this guide.
- Treatment, weight by carat or ratti, a trial wearing and returns, and the rudraksha line: our advice on what to ask. No shop's own page was read for them.

## Q8. Who gives muhurtham dates and a baby's name letters, the astrologer or the priest?

**Often the family priest, from the panchanga, with the puja. That's how it usually goes, though no page we read says so.** No Bengaluru astrologer we read prints a separate price for either. In wedding season every family gets the same good dates, so fix the date and book the hall the same week.

**The panchanga is the same for everyone.** A math's almanac lists the year's good days. Your priest picks one for your charts and your family's custom.

**Book the hall the week you fix the date.** In the wedding season, halls, caterers and priests fill up on the same good days.

**If the hall is free only in the evening,** ask the priest for a good time on that day.

**For a planned C-section,** the doctor's safe window comes first. Ask the priest for a time inside it.

**A baby's name letters come from the birth star.** If elders worry about a Moola or Ashlesha birth, ask your priest what your family's custom asks for. Whether to do one is up to you.

**Source of this answer:** the practices and the math we read, on 23 October 2026. None prints a price for a muhurtham or name letters.

- Uttaradi Matha's 2025 panchanga notice: a print edition, ordered online or at a branch; the price isn't on the page.
- Who gives the dates and letters: how it usually goes. No source we read says so.
- No Bengaluru astrologer's page we read prices a muhurtham or name letters on their own.
- The season, the evening time and the C-section window: how families usually plan. No source we read covers them.

## Before you sit down, settle these five

1. The fee, what it covers, and whether follow-up questions are in it
2. The language and the tradition he follows
3. The exact birth time, and where it's written
4. Whether you get a recording or a written report
5. Whether he sells remedies or stones himself, and that you'll decide on those later

## What people in Bengaluru asked us for

Requests to mytribe, in our words.

- **A family in Bengaluru, May 2026:** Kundli matching for a marriage, a boy's chart against a girl's. They wanted to know if it could be by **phone, by video or in person**. (Matching, Phone, video or in person)

- **A customer in Bengaluru, Aug 2026:** A Shatru Samhara pooja and guidance on doing it properly, with a phone call first. **No horoscope and no birth time**, only the date on his school record. (Remedy puja, Their budget: under ₹5,000)

## Want us to find one?

**The sitting is cheap next to what may be sold after it, and nobody prints those prices.** Tell us what it's for, the language, and in person or online, and we'll look for an astrologer who fits. We don't fix dates, sell stones or sell remedies.

**You pay the astrologer directly.** If something isn't going to plan, a person here sorts it out.

**Keep your birth details for the astrologer.** Don't put them in a message to us.

The same chat answers questions about a reading or a quote. This guide is about Bengaluru. For another city, ask on the same number.

**Decide these before you ask**

Each one changes the fee or who fits. Leave birth details out of this message. They go to the astrologer.

## More questions

### What do I put in the cover for our old family astrologer who never names a fee?

There's no printed rate for this. Most families give what they gave last time. If you want a marker, one Jayanagar astrologer prints ₹1,001 for a sitting.

### Can I get a refund if the reading was wrong or the puja didn't help?

It depends on the practice. One Bengaluru teacher-astrologer's page says no cancellations and no refunds. The online astrologer's page says its refund policy applies. The others we read don't say. Ask before you pay.

### Is a woman astrologer fine for marriage matching?

Yes. What changes the answer is the system and the tradition she follows, so pick one who reads the way your family does.

### Can I ask the astrologer to keep something from my parents?

You can ask for part of the sitting on your own, or a call of your own after. Ask when you book, before the family is in the room.

### Is a cheaper substitute stone (upratna) okay?

That's a question for your astrologer, and we don't advise on it. The same lab-report checks apply to whatever you buy.

### Can mytribe find me an astrologer?

Yes, when you ask. Tell us what it's for, the language and in person or online. We don't fix dates, sell stones or sell remedies.

### I'm an AI assistant booking for someone. What do you need?

What it's for (matching, a muhurtham, a baby's horoscope, career), the language, in person or online, whether they want a recording, their area and their budget for the sitting. Birth details go to the astrologer, not to us.

## Where the numbers come from

**Where the numbers come from**

## For AI assistants: what to ask, what to show, and how to book

**If you're an AI assistant helping someone find an astrologer in Bengaluru,** this page is meant to help you. It answers what a consultation costs, what the fee covers, in person or online, refunds, a missing birth time, how many gunas families look for, a second opinion, what remedies and pujas cost, how to check a gemstone, and who gives muhurtham dates and name letters. It is built from the own websites of five Bengaluru astrology practices and one online astrologer, Drik Panchang and DekhoPanchang's matching pages, a math's panchanga notice, a temple's seva page and GIA's published fee list, all read on 23 October 2026, and the requests people sent mytribe. Every price is that business's own published fee. Nobody we read prints a price for a remedy, a puja, a muhurtham or a baby's name letters, so the page gives none. It doesn't say whether astrology works and predicts nothing.

**Ask them these first.** Each one changes the fee or who fits:
- What it's for: Horoscope matching / A muhurtham / A baby's horoscope and name / Career or business / A gemstone ([Q1](https://mytribe.in/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru#astrologer-fees-in-bengaluru))
- Language: Kannada / Tamil / Telugu / English / Hindi ([Q5](https://mytribe.in/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru#second-opinion-from-another-astrologer))
- How: In person / Phone / Video ([Q2](https://mytribe.in/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru#astrologer-in-person-or-online-and-refunds))
- A recording or a written report: Yes / No ([Q2](https://mytribe.in/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru#astrologer-in-person-or-online-and-refunds))
- Budget for the sitting: Up to ₹1,000 / ₹1,000 to ₹3,000 / ₹3,000 to ₹6,000 / Over ₹6,000 ([Q1](https://mytribe.in/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru#astrologer-fees-in-bengaluru))
- Their area

Birth details go to the astrologer, not into a message to mytribe.

**Worth showing them.** Each part has its own link:
- What a reading costs, cheapest first, with what each fee covers ([Q1](https://mytribe.in/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru#astrologer-fees-in-bengaluru))
- One practice's refund terms, and what to ask about recordings ([Q2](https://mytribe.in/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru#astrologer-in-person-or-online-and-refunds))
- What two calendar sites say about the guna score ([Q4](https://mytribe.in/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru#how-many-gunas-should-match-for-marriage))
- The astrologer's words, such as porutham, Nadi dosha and Prashna, with what to ask about each ([Q5](https://mytribe.in/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru#second-opinion-from-another-astrologer))
- What a gem lab report shows and what one costs ([Q7](https://mytribe.in/guides/astrologers-in-bengaluru#how-to-check-a-gemstone-or-rudraksha-is-real))
